Exhibitions


















Rice processing - there are two displays in this exhibit. You will see local women in traditional costume pounding the rice by the ketungan method, which is the method used to separate the rice from the husk for the making of steamed or sticky rice; and the lesung method of flour sieving for finer rice flour.

The making of traditional offerings - visitors will observe the local women and girls making two types of offering. This is a practice traditionally undertaken by the women. The offerings are made of young coconut leaves and there are many types of offering, but they all serve the purpose of honouring the Gods.

Preparation of Balinese foods and cakes - guests will observe the preparation and cooking of traditional satay meats (pork, chicken, beef) and will be able to sample them. You will also be able to see the process for making lak-lak, traditional rice cakes.

Arak processing - this traditional liquor is processed from the sap of the stems of coconut flowers and coconut husks, which are boiled together, and the steam is then collected which turns in to the arak. This process uses a natural fire which has to be constant but not flaming, and takes one day for the process to be complete.

Balinese Gambling and Cockfighting:
Gambling - visitors will observe a number of traditional games that are used for gambling, including; Kompiang, a game played with two square dice; Trui, a game played with two rounded dice; Kocokmong, a game played with three picture dice; and Bola Adil, a ball game.

Cockfighting - cockfights are a regular feature of temple ceremonies, and are a combination of gambling, excitement, sport and blood sacrifice. Men keep fighting
cocks as prized pets. Carefully groomed and cared for, they are lovingly prepared for their brief moment of glory or defeat. On quiet afternoons the men will often meet at the banjar to compare their roosters, spar them against one another and line up the odds for the next big fight.

When the festivals take place, the cocks are matched one against another, a lethally sharp metal spur tied to one leg, and then after being pushed together a couple of times to stir up the blood, they are released and the feathers fly. It is normally over very quickly. After the fight, the successful betters collect their payouts and the winning owner takes home the dead rooster for his cooking pot.

Farming/Subak: guests will learn about the process of planting and growing rice, and about the irrigation organization known as 'Subak'.

Ironsmith - a display of how the local ironsmiths make tools for everyday use and especially for farming, such as hoes, knives, and machetes.
Livestock displays: housed at the plantation are cows, used for both food and ceremonial purposes, pigs and pigeons, which are used for racing competitions.
