"PERANG OBOR" (street of fire)
The most thrilling public fire festival from Jepara, central Java, Indonesia. It is an annual traditional festival originally dedicated for "respect to ancestors" and "villagers' thanks giving"
Took place on special day based on old Javanese calendar and always on "Monday evening".
In 2022 = 20th June ... and 2023 = 5th June.
This event nowadays becomes most attractive fire festival in Indonesia.
When you attend this event, you will have the feeling like in the middle of war ... afraid of fire may splash or drop on you. But instead of scary, trust me, you will have the feeling and comments: "incredible ... fantastic ... and I have to come again !!"
"Perang Obor" (Torch light fighting)
Saya sendiri ingin menyebut festival tahunan tradisional yang dramatis ini: "Street of Fire". Karena momen kejadian penuh dengan kebakaran dan momen dramatis di jalanan yang membuat penonton yang hadir begitu antusias dan fotografer bersemangat sehingga mereka tidak akan menyadari festival telah usai.
Bagi fotografer yang menyukai siluet dan sudut minat manusia, festival ini akan mendorong saraf Anda di antara sibuk menangkap dan takut akan efek api.
Silakan hubungi saya jika tertarik untuk menyaksikan festival ini atau yang mempesona lainnya di Indonesia.
Dengan salam hangat,
