People lives in Ubud and visitors were recently witnessed the royal cremation ceremony took place on July 15, 2008 for Members for Ubud Royal Family.
The cremation was held for the bodies of two prominent of elders of the Ubud Royal Family, Tjokorda Gde Agung Suyasa and Tjokorda Gede Raka. The effigy of Desak Raka whose body was cremated in a similar ceremony in December 2007 soon after she passed away, will also give a full cremation ceremony. On the same day, 68 other people from villages in Ubud also received full cremation ceremonies.
I was very lucky to be able to witness this spectacular moment which rarely held in Bali, the previous one was in 1979. Here are few pictures I took during the cremation day. There were two big bulls statue and two cremation towers or Bade, one of the tower has 28 meters height.
People in Ubud lives with unique culture and traditions blend in harmony with Hindu religion.
