Baris dance is renowned as one of the most multifaceted Balinese dances. Baris is a warriors dance which is performed solo and it needs immense power, strength and expertise. Apart from that, Legong Keraton dance is popular as the most refined amongst the other Balinese dances. This dance is the essence of classical Balinese female dancing and it requires three dancers. Last but not least, the Barong dance is performed by two men presenting playful movements in order to utter its high-spirited nature.
In regard to Balinese drama, this incorporates many visual-art aspects through puppets and masks. Resembling Balinese dances, Balinese dramas also reveal the spirit of the Balinese ethnicity as well as religion. In Balinese society, drama plays important role in commemorating the Balinese histories. By seeing the drama, Balinese people and the common society can learn about the popular story of Ramayana or Mahabrata. Also, those Balinese dramas illustrate the other epic stories that somehow have been forgotten nowadays. Really, watching the Balinese dramas will add value for your vacation in Bali.
