Pelebon at Puri Agung Peliatan, Ubud

A crowd of spectators had the opportunity to witness a grandiose Balinese cremation ceremony in Ubud recently. The deceased was Ida Cokorda Istri Rai, daughter-in-law of the King of Peliatan, and the high-caste status of this royal family ensured that it was an elaborate occasion.

The cremation procession featured a Naga Banda, a mythical dragon-like creature with a 5-metre long tail, which is one of the elements that made this high-caste ritual such a spectacular event.
