Hari Nyepi - Bali's Day of Silence and Hindu New Year 1929 Saka /INDONESIA

INDONESIA: Nyepi: Nyepi means being very quiet. It is a Hindu New Year commemorated only by the Hindu People in Indonesia.
The celebration of Nyepi is centralized in Bali (the only Hindu province in Indonesia). During the Nyepi Day, people are expected to do a meditation at home. To respect the day, people are encouraged to keep quiet and to reduce their activities outside their house. All flights to and from Bali are closed on this day to create the very quiet day for the Hindu people in Bali.
