Happy Chinese New Year'2024, The year of The Dragon. Gong Xi... Gong xi ... Gong Xi...
🐲 Bali’s rich cultural tapestry, from vibrant Barong dances to intricate temple decorations, showcases a blend of influences, including elements from Chinese culture.
🐲 Despite not officially celebrating Chinese New Year, some Balinese with Chinese ancestry partake in the festivities. They visit temples, offer prayers, and then join family gatherings for a food-filled celebration.
🐲 Notably, several temples in Bali, like Dalem Balingkang temple, pay homage to Chinese culture. This temple honors Kang Cing Wie and King Jaya Pangus, a Chinese princess who married into Balinese royalty. King Jaya Pangus, reigning from 1178 to 1181, left a mark on Bali’s history.
As Chinese New Year approaches in 2024, it’s a time of joy for those who celebrate. May the year ahead be filled with prosperity and happiness for everyone observing this special occasion. 🙏 🎋
