Barong!

So for you Hindus out there you know all there is to know about the Barong. But for the rest of you, the Barong is a mythical creature that fights the bad spirits and can take on many forms.

Here in Bali it is no different. The Barong is EVERYWHERE. It can appear as two small children dancing under the big hairy beast, in a paintings, masks, and of course, as two or three adults dancing under the big hairy costume. Either way, if it looks familiar, and you have o idea what it is -- it's the Barong!
