Trunyan Village: Unique Burial Practices and Ancient Culture

In Trunyan Village in Bali, people have unique ways of dealing with death.

Instead of burying or burning the bodies, they place them on the earth at a special spot called Skull Island.

The bodies are covered with cloth and bamboo to protect them.

What's fascinating is that there is no bad smell.

This is thanks to a special tree called Taru Menyan, which absorbs odors.

The village is home to the Bali Aga people, who follow ancient customs.

The village also has a special caste system, and they have interesting traditions like the Brutuk Dance.

You can visit Trunyan to see their customs and learn about their history.
