Festival of People and Tribes in Bali, Indonesia, is a photography post or photo blog dedicated to the many unique and interesting tribes and cultures of Indonesia. When I visited Bali in June 2011, I was fortunate enough to attend a massive local festival showcasing Indonesia’s many different people and cultures in one big event.

Festival of People and Tribes in Bali, Indonesia

Being an avid photographer, I was totally ecstatic about this festival, which was held at Lapangan Puputan in Badung, Denpasar, and went snapshot crazy. The funny thing I noticed was that most of the crowd was mostly locals, and I hardly saw any foreigners there.

Anyway, this stunning event is held once a year, and next year, in 2012, I believe I will be there again to witness it, hopefully with a new camera body and some new lenses. I’ve included below the many faces and tribes of Indonesia. Please feel free to comment or ask me any questions.

Conclusion

The pictures taken above are from some of the many tribes found around Indonesia. I also do not know all the tribe names, so if anyone reading this knows, please share in the comment below.

I would also like to extend my special thanks to Miss Devi and Miss Nonik from Holiday Villa Hotels and Resorts Bali, who suggested I visit this festival during my holiday trip here.

As this is part one, I will compile the second part in time. The next series of the Denpasar festival of arts, culture, and tribes of Bali will showcase the many men in costumes from the Festival of People and Tribes in Bali, Indonesia.
