ELABORATE PIECES OF JOSS-STICKS FOR CHINESE NEW YEAR


Look at the 10 feet high joss-sticks which were outside a temple in Kampung Koh in Sitiawan.  These joss-sticks are presented to the temple as offerings to the Taoist deities.  I find that the joss-sticks in Sitiawan are more elaborate than those in Ipoh.  Perhaps, it is because there is a joss factory here.  It is rather difficult to transport those joss-sticks with intricate extensions of dragons as they are fragile.
