Balinese culture and traditions have been inherited from a long time ago by the ancestors of the Balinese people.

That’s right, Bali has many holy days that are celebrated regularly at certain times based on the Balinese calendar.

When Balinese people celebrate these holy days, like Galungan for example, they will celebrate it by praying to the nearest temple. This is where the uniqueness lies, all Balinese people who will pray to the temple must wear a certain outfit. This clothing is called traditional clothing to the temple (pakaian adat ke pura), which is also included in traditional Balinese clothing. There is two optional clothing bali. The first optional clothing bali is called Kebaya. Kebaya is worn by Balinese women which consists of a kebaya as a top, kamen and a shawl (selendang) tied around the waist of the woman who wears it. Meanwhile, the second optional clothing bali is called Safari, which is used by Balinese men. The safari consists of udeng, which is used on the head, then the safari shirt as a top, saput and kamen.
