In last of March 2009, we will find three big ceremonies for Balinese. First is Galungan, second is Nyepi and then Kuningan. Usually, Galungan and Kuningan will be celebrate every 6 month, where Kuningan will celebrate ten days after Galungan Day.

Little different with both ceremonies above, Nyepi Day or many people known as Silent Day will be celebrate once a year. But in this year, three ceremonies above will be celebrate in two weeks. Many peoples have enthusiastic to celebrate ceremonies in this year, but we will not find Ogoh-ogoh (giant puppet) on Pengerupukan day (day before Nyepi), it caused in this period Indonesia will hold election.

Happy Galungan, Kuningan, and Nyepi Day !
