TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - In commemorating the Nyepi Day 1941 Saka New Year, Sea World Ancol will hold a cultural show dubbed 'Barongan: An Epic Underwater Show'.

The Ancol management joined hands with Balinese cultural expert from Aditya Jaya temple to present the Balinese Barong art performance.

The Barongan: An Epic Underwater Show will be held on March 8, 9, 10, and 16-17, at 10:45 and 13:45 Jakarta time.
