Galungan
This is the most important Balinese holiday and symbolizes the victory of
virtue (Dharma) over Evil (Adharma). The holiday is characterized by putting
"Penjor" (tall Bamboo poles laboriously decorated with woven coconut
leaves, cakes and flowers), on the right side of every house entrance. It is
important for the Balinese to visit all their family temples on this day which
sometimes requires a lot of driving around.
There will be temple
celebrations at Pura Ratu Bagus Subandar, Besakih Complex, Karangasem; Pura
Dukuh Sakti, Kediri and Tabanan.
