๐ช Did you know "Rare Angon" doesn't actually mean giant kites? Before visiting this festival, I had no idea the name came from Balinese mythology. Rare Angon translates to "Shepherd Boy", and legend tells of a young shepherd who returns after the rice harvest carrying a bamboo flute, calling the wind so the giant kites can rise into the sky. It's stories like these that make me appreciate Bali even more. Behind so many traditions is a history that's been passed down through generations. If you'd like to learn more about Bali's Giant Kite Festival, I've put together a 5-minute YouTube video sharing the story behind this incredible tradition. ๐ฅ Watch the full video here: https://youtu.be/Rdhp-ILtcLE I promise, you'll never look at Bali's giant kites the same way again. ๐๐ช #Bali #RareAngon #BalineseCulture #BaliCulture #Sanur #Indonesia #TravelBali #ChadAndMiaOfficial #VisitBali #KiteFestival
