Discover the unique history and symbolism behind the Kecak dance

Did you know that the Kecak dance was created in the 1930s by a German artist and a Balinese dancer? They drew inspiration from the Balinese ritual Sanghyang dedari and added elements of the Ramayana to make it more accessible to Western audiences. As you watch the fire dance at the end of the show, you'll learn that it symbolizes the burning of Hanuman, the monkey god who helped Prince Rama in his quest. With its rich history and deep cultural significance, the Kecak Fire and Dance Show is an experience you won't want to miss.
