🐲 Not a tourist show, but a sacred Balinese ritual of purification. Once a year, on the full moon of the fourth Balinese month, young men from two village groups battle with burning coconut husks, sparks flying through the night to the sound of gamelan. The fire honors Kala Geni Rudra, guardian of Pura Dalem Kahyangan, and is believed to burn away bad luck, disease, and negative spirits, cleansing the village and restoring harmony.
