13. PEJENG CREMATION #1 - In the village of Pejeng, a large crowd assembles (foreground) for the short procession to the cremation grounds (background), where sarcophagi await their arrival. Mass cremations are held here every five years so as to share the considerable cost of the ceremonies, with the bodies (in this case around 150) buried temporarily until the auspicious day. | Pejeng_20100624_092.jpg |
