CALENDAR OF EVENTS - DECEMBER 2012

DECEMBER 13TH – DARK MOON - TILEM KANEM
The Balinese adhering to the Hindu Dharma religion will celebrate 'Tilem' in temple ceremonies, which are mostly held in every major temple and family shrines around the island of Bali. On this day Hindus make offerings to the Gods, placed on the ground at the entrance of each housing compound. The aim is to beg God's grace; so that one's dark thoughts will be illuminated by Him.

DECEMBER 22ND – BALINESE BLESSING CEREMONY - HARI TUMPEK WAYANG
This auspicious day on the Balinese calendar is devoted to the worship of Sanghyang Iswara, Lord of Puppeteers. This holiday is the most important day for owners of leather puppets and puppeteers when they are taken from their box (keropak), and blessed. It is considered unlucky if a child were to be born on this day. Prayers will be held at the temples across the island.

DECEMBER 24TH– CHRISTMAS EVE
This is a fun night to be had, either intimately over a family Christmas dinner at many of the hotels, restaurants, resorts and private villas all ready to serve up traditional turkey or a Balinese 'bebek' (duck). Or kick your heels up with your friends for a wild night of dancing and parties at all the bars and clubs along the southern coast. Bali is a wonderful choice to welcome in Christmas in the tropics.

DECEMBER 25TH – CHRISTMAS DAY
This is a national holiday and is celebrated across the island in all hotels, restaurants, bars and clubs with special festivities programs. All banks and government offices will be closed.

DECEMBER 26TH – BOXING DAY
This traditional day after Christmas is spent relaxing and being with family and friends with good food. Many establishments around the island will also be offering Boxing Day specials.

DECEMBER 27TH – FULL MOON - PURNAMA KANEM
The full moon (which has particular importance to the Balinese Hindus) falls on this day and ceremonies are held throughout the Hindu temples all across Bali. The Balinese that adhere to the Hindu Dharma religion will take offerings of food, fruit and flowers to the temple to be blesses by the priest. The Balinese themselves are then blessed by performing various rituals using holy water, incense smoke, petals and rice grains.

DECEMBER 31ST – NEW YEARS EVE
This is a huge night on Bali with crowds gathering in the popular spots, especially in Kuta along the beach, so please keep some traffic delays in mind. It is probably best to catch a cab. Everyone everywhere will be waiting for the midnight countdown into 2013, so wherever you choose to celebrate, it will be for sure, a night to remember. HAPPY NEW YEAR 2013.

http://nickodarwis.multiply.com/journal/item/60

Karena seru, acara diadakan kembali…
Museum Blanco kedatangan lagi beberapa orang pelukis Hungaria dan seniman lukis dari Spanyol, yang akan melukis langsung di Museum Blanco, dgn ketua Tim : Norbert Szuk, Pada hari Minggu pagi Tgl 14 Oktober 2012 nanti sd jam 5 sore.

Mario Blanco sebagai tuan rumah turut mengajak para teman-teman fotografer untuk hadir meliput maupun candid aksi para pelukis Hungaria tersebut didepan Museum Blanco, Ubud, Bali.

Mereka akan memperlihatkan kebolehan mereka dengan cara mereka masing masing tuk melukis on location.

Sessi Utama lainnya, untuk fotografer, selain memotret para pelukis beraksi, suasana di area museum, terdapat juga 3 penari bali yg hadir disana, dua orang pak tua dengan kesehariannya, dan 1 model cantik Bali beraksi

Peserta Terbatas, 60 orang saja, karena jumlah model penari 3, pak tua 2, model gadis Bali 1, dan 2 spot food still life di rondji resto, jadi 8 model/spot, bisa untuk sekitar 7 orang per kelompok (per kelompok sekitar 7 orang per 1 model/spot), atau bisa digabung tergantung keinginan kelompok masing-masing
Atau boleh beberapa pisah untuk mengambil arsitektur dan bird collection, ini termasuk dalam potensial obyek lainnya.
Untuk model dapat nambah, karena museum Blanco memiliki beberapa potensi model lagi hehehe

Yg beda dari acara ke 1 lalu :
-------------------------
1. Adanya 2 spot still life food and drink di Rondji Restaurant dan spot tambahan mengambil arsitektur museum blanco dan bird collection (macau, jalakbali, kakaktua, merak dan lainnya).

Sekilas tentang Rondji Restaurant :

2. Karena Tahun lalu free charge (tidak dapat kaos dan tidak dapat makan siang), eh pas ada yg makan diacara yg lalu, beli didalam museum, yg nggak ikut makan panitia jadi mikirin ?? ☹ sedih, ditambah ada beberapa teman minta souvenir “blancobali” bahkan ada yg minta discount 50% di blancobali giftshop…xixixi…
Selanjutnya : karena free, ada 10 seat yg sudah dipesan…ehhh nggak datang…kasihan yg pengen ikut nggak kebagian…daftarnya gratis sih…hehehe

makanya untuk saat ini,
Biaya Rp 50.000 Dapat kaos BlancoBali 1 dan makan siang ☺
Jadi worthed lah Rp 50.000 dapat kaos dan makan siang, trus dapat stok foto budaya, model, still life food n drink serta….lihat point ke 3 dibawah hehehe
Jadi biaya Rp 50.000 lebih kepada konsumsi peserta di acara dan souvenir murah mengesankan
….nggak perlu “koprol” dan bilang wow gitu ☺

3. Dari 60 peserta, 10 orang dapat hadiah dari total hadiah Rp 12 Juta dan dapat sertifikat Blanco museum untuk lomba foto
Yg paling banyak dapat total hadiah porsinya yg fotonya diikutkan lomba (lomba boleh tidak ikut, jika alasan ikut cuma kongkow) dan masuk kedalam peringkat.

Amlapura - Town of Karangasem - Located on the southeastern part of the Regency.

History :
This regency founded in the early 1700's, was still recognized as a kingdom even after Dutch conquest of Bali in the 1900's. This regency still supports many traditions that have been in existence since the 14th century, having resisted the Javanese influence that invaded other regencies of Bali.

Amlapura Town : This regency capital changed its name from Karagasem to Amplapura 1963 after Mt. Agung erupted in the hope that a similar eruption would never again take place.

Agung Kanginan Palace - Reflecting a number of foreign architectural influences in the late 19th century by the king Anak Agung Gede Jelantik. This palace still maintains the royal bedroom with Dutch furnishings, as well as various meeting and ceremonial halls. Royal photographs of the late King and family and various clothes are also on display.

Taman Ujung Pleasure Palace - With an outstanding view to the Lombok Strait over rice paddy fields, this water palace, although barely more than ruins depicts a time of glory and glamour. Moats, pools and water gardens were the passion of the late King of Karangasem. Sadly the palace was badly damaged in both the Mt. Agung eruption of 1963 and a subsequent earthquake in 1979.

Tirtagganga Water Gardens - Built a few years later by the late King of Karangasem this water-garden plays host to bathing pools fed by cool springs, ornamental water features and a swimming pool.

Candi Dasa - Tourist Resort named after old temple on the nearby hillside. Beautiful beaches, good accommodation make Candi Dasa a good place from which to discover the eastern part of Bali. In the village you will find a Gandhi meditation centre on the edge of lotus pond just beside the beach. Offshore islets and coral reefs make it an ideal diving and snorkeling spot.

Tulamben shipwreck - a cargo ship torpedoed in 1942 consequently sunk near the coast of Tulamben and now offers divers an incredible array of marine life, still within shallow waters (between 2-10 m) and in close proximity to the coastline.

Padang Bai - The largest eastern port of Bali, where ferries & ships travel on to Lombok and beyond. Large luxury cruise liners anchor here close to the Silayukti sea temple.

Tenganan - A Bali Aga village - (Bali Aga - descendants of the Original Balinese who lived on this island before the influx of Javanese courtiers & artists of the Majapahit exodus from Java, between the 12 & 14th centuries). This immaculately kept village is 5 kms north of Candi Dasa. They are famous for weaving the geringsing a cloth that may take years to weave as the patterns of the textile are dyed to their final design whilst still in the thread stage. The conservative Bali Aga does not allow members of the village to marry outside of their community. Youngsters wishing to do so are banned from taking part in the intrinsic ceremonies. Their religious calendar is quite different to that of the rest of Bali. The villages of Tenganan & Dauh Tukad have many incredible ceremonies between June and July. See Calender of Events- Mekare, Malingan etc.

Asak & Bungaya - Two villages that are renowned for village handicrafts such as stone carving, woven crafts and traditional costumes

Manggis - A pretty village in the foothills of Mt. Agung with cooler more agreeable temperatures than the coast. A number of small hotels and villas cater to those looking for a more secluded place to stay than Candi Dasa.

Balina Beach & Yeh Malina - Balina Beach are beaches near to Manggis with white sand and clear water, good for swimming and fishing. Sunsets from this vantage point are very romantic.

Sibetan & Putung - This area is famous for the Salak or snake fruit plantations. Panoramic views of terraced rice paddy fields and the blue sea beyond afford good opportunities for avid photographers.

Bebandem & Putung - Bebandem is a pretty market town with nearby Putung offering spectacular views on a clear day.

Padangkerta - Ceremonies and rituals held at this village encompass trance dances, battles using thorny pandan leaves and all decorated with spectacular offerings.

Sideman - This village is famous for weaving brocades and the traditional Endek & Songket fabric.

Besakih Temple - Bali's largest and most revered temple since the fifteenth century is built 1'000 meters (3333feet) above sea level on the slopes of sacred Mt Agung. This temple complex is entered by climbing up one of two staircases past several terraces. Each terrace contains about 30 different shrines or pagodas. Visitors are not allowed to enter the inner temple courtyards. Three main temples, Penataran Agung, Kiduling Kreteg and Batu Madeg were built to honor Siwa, Brahma and Wisnu respectively. Near the main gate is a pavilion called Pawedaan that is used by both Buddhist & Shiva priests when holding Weda recitations. Besakih enjoys many celebrations and Hindu ceremonies throughout the year and is visited by pilgrims from all over Bali.

Mount Agung - Climbing this mountain may take between 8 - 10 hours and is only recommended for the fit! Cloud cover may obscure the view from the summit. Trekkers should start at fist light and will probably make it back by dusk. A large amount of bottled water, dried fruits and sweets are very necessary is as the descent is tiring due to partial exhaustion!

History :
It was in this part of Bali that the fleeing royalty of the Majapahit dynasty set up their kingdom. Between the 14th and 19th centuries Samprangan, Gelgel & Klungkung were all capitals of the Klungkung Regency. Recognized by other Balinese kingdoms as the most powerful, this regency was one of the last strongholds of the Balinese during the Dutch invasion of 1900's. The Gelgel dynasty ruled in Bali for over 600 years and throughout their reign the arts flourished

Klungkung Regency Capital - This busy market town on the main route to Besakih and Amlapura is steeped in history and has some noteworthy sites, the Semara Pura Palace complex which houses the Hall of Justice and Kambang Pavilion. The market here sells interesting textiles woven in the eastern part of Bali, one thing to buy is sea salt panned from the nearby beaches.

Taman Gili Palace - Built in the Dewa Agung dynasty, by artisans of the royal court. Not much remains of this palace, destroyed during the Dutch invasion of Bali, except for the main gate and two buildings that were rebuilt and restored in the 1940's.

Kertha Gosa - Judgment Hall - A Hall of Justice which functioned as the highest seat arbitration in the kingdom. The ceiling friezes depict scenes of horror and punishment. Villains judged here were imprisoned on Nusa Penida Island.

Bale Kambang - This floating pavilion is adjoined to the Judgment Hall, the ceiling friezes here depict scenes of Buddhist folklore and astrology

Bat Cave - Goa Lawah - A cave said to house the scared serpent that guards holy Mount Agung and the cosmos. Teeming with bats, this cave has various passageways, some up to 30kms long, in fact it is said that one leads all the way to the Temple of Besakih.

Gelgel - The royal household was based in the village Gelgel in the fifteenth century. Both the Jero Agung and Dasar temples are worth visiting, the latter being reserved for ceremonies of higher caste or aristocracy of Bali.

Kamasan - A small village near Klungkung from which a style of Balinese painting originated, the Kamasan style, based on east Javanese shadow puppets or wayang.

Kusamba - A salt panning village with a black sand beach.

Lembongan & Ceningan Islands - Small islands of the east coast of Bali, with a number of caves and beaches to explore. Lembongan is a very popular one-day cruise destination.

Penida Island - Originally the penitentiary island for the Klungkung kingdom. The Dalem Peed Temple is associated with myth and black magic.

Nusa Penida - the largest of the three outlying islands measuring approximately 200 sq kilometers. White sand beaches, white cliffs prove that this island is not volcanic but made mainly from limestone. Historically Nusa Penida was a penal colony for the Klungkung Regency, undesirables were sent here after having been judged in the Kerta Gosa. A very dry climate and a local myth of a ferocious giant, giving Penida a reputation as an evil place, maintains the population at about 45'000. For the most part Penidan families fish and farm for a living, with seaweed being probably the largest export of this island. The main town is Samplan, on the north east coast of the island, this and another 18 hamlets make up the extent of the residential part of Penida. Two temples, Peed & Batukuning are interesting to visit. The dive spots on Penida are very challenging as currents are strong.

Nusa Lembongan - a small low-lying island of approximately two & a half kilometers wide by 4 kms in length. This island has white sand beaches, crystal clear waters, coral reefs and is currently developing as a promising tourist destination. Cruise operators visit this island with diving, snorkeling, glass bottom and banana boat rides being the main focus of tourist attention. The main cottage industry here is seaweed farming and the seaweed gardens are well worth visiting at low tide. A unique place to visit on the island is an underground house which was supposedly carved out of the ground with a spoon! Other attractions include walking around traditional village and catching a small boat to tour the mangroves. Surfers all head over to Jungut Batu on the north east of the island.

Nusa Ceningan - the smallest of the three islands, made up mainly from a sand flat. The name comes from cenik - the Balinese word for small. Seldom visited the small islet is home to a bat cave, incredible coral and marine life.
