The Journey

Kuningan Celebration, Bali

25/6/2014

Rows and rows of beautiful flag-like-poles, decorated with intricate folding of young palm leaves, rice paddies and a small offering pocket at the bottom. Variations of these poles adorn the street of Bali, especially when we drove past homes in the suburb.

'What is that?'

   'Penjor. It's for the Galungan and Kuningan celebration'

Kuningan day, marks the end of the 10 day Galungan celebration. It is celebrated every 210 days in Bali, as explained by my friend Arie. 

*Penjor comes is various sizes and elaborate decorations. Each one is different and is made by every family. It can take any where between 5 hours to 3 days to make one. The larger the penjor, and elaborate it is, symbolises the size of the family. Its normally perched right outside every home.

Serene, peaceful and quite.
Tucked away in the hillside of Tampaksiring, lies the temple of Gunung Kawi. Unlike the other temples in Bali, this one is rather laid back, shrouded by mysteries and stunning views.

*Not to be confused with Pura Gunung Kawi Sebatu. Similar names, very close location but certainly two different temples.

As you make your way down to the temple, you’re welcomed by the sound of running water followed by lush greenery. Gunung Kawi is set among rice terraces and the jungle, which makes the setting stunning.
