Galungan Festival

One of the most important Balinese Festivals, this is a celebration of the victory of good over evil. Honouring the creator of the universe, during this 10 day celebration the Balinese show their gratitude to the creator and their ancestors. This involves family and temple time, food and prayer, and the decorating of homes and streets with the iconic penjor, one of my favourite sights in Bali. As significant is Kuningan, which marks the end of the festival. On this day temples are full of pilgrims making offerings, dancing and rituals. To get the best out of this festival just take to the streets and enjoy a real taster of the colourful and deeply spiritual island of Bali.
