Dayu utari about Bali wedding

Bali have a nice and beautiful wedding. Some couple's marriage will not be acknowledged in the society if it is carried out without a traditional sacred ceremony according to the Hindu religious beliefs. In addition,if there is no traditional secreat ceremony the couple will be excommunicated from their village.
We have many kinds of bali weddings, such as a marriage form in Bali in which the boy's parents and other family members come to the house of the brides parents and respectfully ask for their daughter. This is a costly process as large ceremonies and offerings are involved, but needless to say accords significantly more respect from the brides parents as compared to the clandestine night-time elopement. from the man's point of view, however, it's more risky as the parents of his bride-to be must give their approval.
The marriage system in Bali in which the groom leaves for the brides house and thereafter belongs to the brides family. This is refered to as nyentana .This happens when the brides parents have no sons to look after their property - the man is effective assumed into the family to continue the male lineage. In this case, it is the grooms parents who must give their consent,however not all balinese wedding use this system.Years ago in the days of Bali's kingdoms, the marriage system was very variaty. Only couples from the same caste were allowed to marry, in order to maintain the purity of the caste system. Anyone braking these marriage rules was banished from their village and often sent out into the jungle for the rest of their days. These days, however, while still very much respected, the caste system no longer holds such an iron-like grip over the Balinese and greater flexibility is permitted. But know step by step this system alrady lost,because now is modern live

Bali forest and mountain is so natural. Like At gunung agung mountain Fortunately, Bali's highest and most revered mountain is not difficult to climb. The tip is to start well before dawn, armed with a strong flashlight, water, food, and warm and waterproof clothing.. But climbing is not permitted when major religious events are held at Pura Besakih. The shortest and most popular route up Gunung Agung is from Selat or Muncan; involving the least walking due thankfully to serviceable roads from both Selat or Muncan town to the Pura Pasar Agung, or Agung Market Temple. From the temple, you can climb to top in as little as 2 short hours Thats so nice and challenging.
We olso have forest that is lot of monkey there ,we called Alas Kedaton is located in Tabanan bali , Marga Sub district. The journey go to this place can be done easily by using motor or car vehicle follow the major roadway from everyhere at bali. On the way go to this tourist place, we will see the beautiful nature view where in front of us will meet the carpet of rice field and irrigation voice at the side of road to bear the impression/peaceful atmosphere.. The interesting point of this temple is the inside yard representing holy yard, its situation lower than the middle yard. This thing is different compare with the general temples in Bali that are more goes to inside the temple, the more higher the place will be. Beside of that another interesting point of this temple owns four entrances.the monkey there is so much and nice.we can come every day with some foods for the monkey.


Enjoy your trip!!! Bali forest is nice escape.

Dewata Island

Bali Island ( dewata island ) is rich of culture with the unique society social life and most of the population believe in Hindu. This make the island very recognizable to the entire world. In bali,we use a different year calculation,which is called Caka,whicw is used by indonesians who practice hinduisme.communication of the new year, known as nyepi day / silent day, is a unique day due to no activity during the entire day(electric light cannot be used/no one can go outside during the day,no activity ). To greet the Nyepi day, Hindu Society throughout The Island of bali conduct the cortege of Ogoh Ogoh (Giant doll like ghost or monster) pageant encircle the countryside accompanied by the traditional music like Gong gamelan aim to dissipate the virulent soul / or ugly influence from pertinent countryside. This cortege is very fun to be a part of all society components follow involved in it. This matter represents one of fascination for tourist who pays a visit to Bali Ogoh Ogoh according to Balinese is symbol from devil or bad atmosphere which always peep and can influence the human being to misbehave, hence from that the virulent influence in Bali dissipated by executing cortege Ogoh Ogoh which pageant encircle the countryside. Ogoh Ogoh, which is described as the big posture like giant ready to eat the human being every occasion, generally its eye goggle and its clothes are horrible completely. Nevertheless, nowadays Ogoh Ogoh have expanded, which is adapted to a story and generally taken away from the story of Mahabharata or Ramayana but sometimes ogoh ogoh already modern style like hold the guitars.ride the motorbike,wearing the pants,hat and shoes. Because very high artistic value in Bali , Balinese now make the Ogoh Ogoh not only virulent giant, but also make the big idol from good figure. Ogoh Ogoh made from bamboo crate which caterpillar and formed as according to imagination of its maker, later then wrapped with the paper, cloth, cotton or sponge. Young fellow in each village does its work in mutual assistance. This celebration Ogoh Ogoh is usually conducted one day before Nyepi Day that we call ngerupuk day and the last of day we called ngembak day.
