Mebuug-Buugan Tradition, Mud War On The Island Of Bali, Indonesia.
A mother and child 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)
