Wayang kulit is the name given to shadow puppetry which is a popular form of entertainment and teaching in Indonesia and Bali in particular. These puppets are controlled by the ‘dalang’ who apart from being the puppet master is also considered an important storyteller since plays deal with such themes as religion, morality and the struggle between good and evil, in which good always overcomes. The narration of the play is sometimes complemented by a traditional gamelan orchestra or by singing and is a form of traditional entertainment that can be enjoyed by young and old alike. Those heading to this popular Indonesian island and looking for Bali resort villas can choose to stay at Alila Villas Uluwatu.
