Sikh Temple on Queen’s Road East Lights Up for Bandi Chhor Divas

The Sikh community celebrates a traditional festival.

The temple’s outer walls are covered in decorations resembling a blue sea, drawing many residents to take photos.

The Sikh temple on Queen’s Road East has been glowing every night recently from around 6:30 p.m.

Its formerly white outer walls are covered in blue lights, standing out against the surrounding buildings and the busy road.

Everyone stops in their tracks, just to capture the dreamlike scene.

People online say it's beautiful, I'd never been here, but I'd finished work, I stopped by to take some photos.

Beautiful. Why? Because I like blue. It’s Elsa’s castle.

Dressed as an anime character in matching colors, will the photos turn out a little more special?

I think it’s really beautiful, and it’s only here for these few days each year, so it’s really a rare sight.

So I specially cosplayed this character.

Actually, I didn't know. It was because so many people this year were taking photos of this building to check in, that I found out.

A Sikh temple representative said, the decorations celebrate the traditional festival of the emancipation of the prisoners, and the local Indian community.
