Kite is one of Balinese culture. When my family visited Bali annually, when I was a little kid, my father always take me to visit a place where people played kites. Maybe there were 20-30 kites on the sky, try to find the rival and decide who is the best.
These day, kite competition was seldom to be held, as far as I know. Well, at least in the village that I visited, my cousin said that this culture is getting extinct.
Maybe based on that, some artists try to keep this culture exist. They teach how to make a kite to the tourists who want to learn it. One of center of the course is in Dewatan, 25 km northeast from Denpasar. You can also find in Ubud tourism village.
Hmmm…this is the best solution to keep the culture from extinct. Good luck! the pic was taken from here
