What is Galungan ?
-------------------
Galungan is when Balinese Hindus commemorate the legendary battle of good versus evil, or the triumph of the spread of Hinduism in Bali. Offerings and prayers take place at family shrines and village temples on December 26. The eve, December 25, sees all Balinese households busy in preparations, by decorating curved bamboo. Traditionally, Galungan day sees the slaughtering of pigs for communal feasts, as well as baking traditional rice cakes and erecting iconic 'penjor' bamboo poles.
This is a unique welcome to Bali if you happen to be on the island around this time !
