ReplyDeleteI wonder where my first comment went... anywayz, like the combination of digital lights especially on trees :-).
ReplyDeletewow, why can't we have something like this near our place. my children (including myself) will surely love wandering around such lovely array of lights such as this. nice pics btw. Yahweh bless. http://trunklocker.blogspot.com/2012/01/holiday-for-2012-chinese-new-year.html
ReplyDeleteI-city looks so nice now but they are only half-way through in its development. It should get better till its done in 2015.

ReplyDeleteI hope they would make one like this in the Philippines so that we wont have to travel all the way to Malaysia to enjoy such awesome site....Pretty and Fresh, that's how i'd describe it.
ReplyDeleteI had been to Kuala Lumpur in 2008 Violy and never even thought that Shah Alam is one of the few destinations I ought to go but did not. I love the colored trees and the feel of Christmas though they follow Islamic tradition.
ReplyDeleteThis post makes me wanna come back to Malaysia in the future.
Great idea! Ang ganda siguro neto sa Pinas.
ReplyDeleteSobrang ganda ng lights..sana makapunta ako dyan...Sigurado masarap pumunta dyan kasama ng buong family ko :)
ReplyDeleteWOW! IMPRESSIVE!
ReplyDeleteGreat thing to know that the Islamic State of Malaysia has spent huge money just to celebrate Christmas in this digitalized city!

Dear Violy,
ReplyDeleteGood Morning!
First of all, thank you for visiting my blog and the comment as well (http://www.mazydoll.com/2011/12/from-necklace-to-cordless-phone.html).
I thought without reading the first sentence that it was in Las Vegas. It must be very costly to run those lights weeks before Christmas day.
Yours,
Vicky David
Hi Vicky! Thanks for dropping by too! ;-) actually this park is open all throughout the year. the Muslims don't celebrate Xmas but it's overwhelming to see them putting Christmas spirit in their park... ;-)
DeleteI admit that I've never heard about Selangor. Where is it in the world? Sorry, I'm not good or well-versed in world geography. The I-City is really illuminated with various colored lights. The city's plaza turns to be an artist's canvas because of the colorful lights. By the way, what does it mean, "digital lights"?
ReplyDeleteQuery from Gil Camporazo of RandomThoughts!
Hi sir Gil! Thanks for dropping by, selangor is a state in the country of Malaysia.. ;-)

ReplyDeleteThese are marvelous photos! How did you capture the vibrance of the lights? I have a good camera but I really need to learn more to be able to take excellent night shots such as these.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures. It's like living in Neverland full of pixie dusts from the Hallow Pixie Tree.. Stunning and beautiful. Wish I could see it for real but for now, thank you for the pictures. :)
ReplyDeleteThose tree lights are nice!
ReplyDeleteI hope that this is energy efficient and environment friendly! :)

ReplyDeletei-City SUCKS!!! SUCKS BIG TIME!! TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED. THE WINTER-WALK COSTS A BOMB AND WAS NOT INTERESTING AT ALL. THE LED TREES ARE A JOKE. ANOTHER SCAM. PLEASE DON'T GO THERE. DO NOT SUPPORT MEDIOCRITY IN ANY FORM AT ANY LEVEL. LET THEM BANKRUPT AND CLOSE DOWN. I AM SORRY FOR THE PEOPLE WHO WORK THERE BUT I AM EVEN SORRIER FOR ALL THE PEOPLE WHO ARE CONNED TO VISIT THE STUPID, RIDICULOUS PLACE.
