| Malaysia, located in the heart of Southeast Asia, is a multi racial country and boasts of an extremely rich and diverse cultural heritage. The cultures that have had a lasting and deep-rooted influence on Malaysia are the ancient Malay, the Chinese, the Indian and the culture of the indigenous tribes. All these cultures, while retaining some of their previous customs and traditions, have blended together beautifully to form a unique culture that is known in the contemporary world as the culture of Malaysia.
A distinguished and appreciable feature of Malaysia is the multi-racial facet of its population where you will find people of various religious faiths, including Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism and Taoism, living together in harmony and peace. As the traditions of all these religions are deeply entrenched in the Malaysian culture, you will find the Malaysians celebrating Christmas, Hari Raya, Deepavali, Gawai Day, Chinese New Year and the other auspicious days of these diverse religions with equal enthusiasm and reverence. If you happen to witness a Malay wedding ceremony on your tours to Malaysia, you will find certain elements of South Indian Hindu weddings. The Muslim settlers in the country have adopted the Chinese custom of distributing money to the needy during their festivals in red packets instead of the traditional green packets used by Muslims all over the world. Malaysians adopt an open-door policy during their festivals where not only the locals of other communities but also tourists are invited to participate in the celebrations. Their religious tolerance and unity has contributed in the tremendous growth and progress of Malaysia and has enhanced travel in Malaysia.
