Mebuug-Buugan Tradition, Mud War On The Island Of Bali, Indonesia.
Balinese youths smear their bodies with mud at the Kedonganan mangrove forest on the island of Bali, Indonesia, on March 21, 2026. The activity is part of a local tradition known as Mebuug-Buugan, symbolizing the cleansing of 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)
