A Video Guide to Nyepi Posted by sasha on Mar 27, 2017 in Uncategorized
Tomorrow is Nyepi, the Balinese New Year. It’s also known as the Day of Silence, because the entire island shuts down. It’s a day of fasting, meditating, and reflecting. No cars are on the road, no businesses are open, and even the airport is closed. In the lead-up to the holiday, there’s a lot going on, from sacred ceremonies to parades of creepy ogoh-ogoh monsters.
There’s lots going on for Nyepi.
