Ogoh-ogoh are statues built for the Ngrupuk Parade, which takes place before the eve of Nyepi day. THis year, Nyepi fell on March 22nd. Nyepi is a Balinese "Day of Silence" that is commemorated every Isaawarsa (Saka New Year) according to Balinese Calendar (in 2012, it fell on March 23rd). It is a day of silence, fasting, and meditation. The day following Nyepi is also celebrated as New Year. Hm, so let me show you, here are some photos of Ogoh-ogoh Parade. Hope you like it guys.


There were so many people at there, celebrating their ceremony! Such a beautiful ceremony~
