What comes to your mind when you think of Indonesia? Pristine beaches and crystal clear water? Well Indonesia is not all about awesome beaches, its rich tradition and culture make it even more alluring to travelers.
So let me introduce you Indonesia’s traditional caci dance, a ritual whip fight, which exists among the Manggarai people.
The dance performance is carried out by two male fighters, one of them come from another village to participate in the fight. Armed with whip, shield, masks, and sticks, these fighters show their skill amidst shouting from spectators, who encourage them to show more lively performance.
The fighters’ performance depict philosophical values of the Manggarai community.
It is generally performed to celebrate top events such as welcoming an honor-guest and wedding party.
The trip was sponsored by OM Tourism and the Ministry of Tourism of Indonesia. Thank you !
Bon Voyage
