Indonesians love to celebrate. They believe that celebrating and eating together can bring good luck. Let's have a look.
Would you be surprised to find New Year's Day in March? Indonesians on the island of Bali are getting ready for Nyepi，their New Year. It falls in March or April and is a symbol of a fresh start for the people and the island of Bali. On the eve of Nyepi，families and friends get together at the market. They carry a huge monster which is made of wood and other materials around the village. After that，people set it on fire，hoping to drive out evil spirits.
After Nyepi，a Turun Tanah ceremony begins in honour of a child's first steps. At Turun Tanah，parents invite friends and relatives to a party to introduce the baby. They put different objects such as a bracelet，a pen，a mirror or a toy computer around their baby. If the baby picks up a pen，he or she may be a writer. A child who picks up a gold bracelet may be rich.
While Turun Tanah celebrates the future of a family，Galungan celebrates its past. Ancestors who died return “home” during this ten - day celebration. And living relatives do their best to make them happy. Tall bamboo poles line the streets. People attend the ceremonies and visit their family and village temples. Actors and dancers give performances that tell stories of good fighting against evil.
A year of festivals has come to an end. Don't worry. Next year，Indonesia will be buzzing again with celebrations，so welcome to the party!
