Uluwatu - Temple on The Hill

One of a very beautiful side of Uluwatu, a place where I watched Kecak Dance in Bali. A hill where you can see beautiful ocean under it. As at any other places in Bali, you can also find temple on the top of the hill. It makes this place looks so peaceful and exotic.

Kecak Dance

Bali is very well known with the beauty of it's dance. One of a famous dance which tourists usually eager to see is Kecak Dance, the one shown in this picture. The dance is played without music, the sounds of "cak-cak" from the 50 men playing in the dance become the music of it. The dance tells us the story of Ramayana fighting with Rahwana who kidnapped his wife, Shinta.
Kecak dance I watch in this picture was conducted at Uluwatu, Bali, a very beautiful hill from where we can see the sea from a high (I will show you other picture of Ulundanu in other chance). However there're other places in Bali where you can see Kecak Dance, like Batu Bulan.
