Here’s a short video of a Kuningan procession passing by our villa in Ubud, Bali.
Balinese culture on display during Kuningan Day
BALI, INDONESIA – During a recent midday walk we passed dozens of altars piled high with colorful prayer offerings for Kuningan day.
Decorated with intricate woven fabrics, ornate palm frond banners and rosettes, tropical flower blossoms, piles of exotic fruits and coconuts, each altar seemed determined to outdo the one next door.
Balinese people believe Kuningan is the day their ancestors return to heaven after visiting the earth during the 10-day Galungan celebration.
