Mebuug-Buugan Tradition, Mud War On The Island Of Bali, Indonesia.

Balinese youths clean themselves from traditional mud at Kedonganan Beach on the island of Bali, Indonesia, on March 21, 2026. The local tradition, known as Mebuug-Buugan, involves smearing the body with mud as a symbol of cleansing oneself from negative energy and expressing gratitude to nature. This celebration follows Nyepi, a 24-hour day of silence observed by Hindus on the island. (Photo by Muhammad Fauzy/NurPhoto)
