Nyepi day in Bali

Nyepi day in Bali



For the first time in the history of the Balinese, Nyepi holiday new year of Saka 1933 this year different from last year where there is no national TV broadcast that aired on this day. It is making people who are not adherent Hindhu feel confused to find the entertainment and news at their home.

A quiet atmosphere can be felt in almost all areas in Bali, no one seemed to do the activities, there are no tourists to travel, resort was closed and no people of Bali to work or go to school. Anyway Bali like a dead city.

Nyepi day commemorated by communities Bali as as day resurrection, days renewal, days togetherness (unity and oneness), days tolerance, days peacefulness once days national harmony. And togetherness and tolerance by non-Balinese residents highly expected and appreciated as a form of tribute to the people of Bali.
