What should you avoid during Nyepi? Here are some of them.

• Don’t wander out on the streets during Nyepi, do not start any engine or use motorcycle. Please stay indoors and enjoy Bali’s quiet time.

It is important to stand still within your accommodation area and not go outside: either by any motorbikes or even just on foot. There should be Pecalang: Balinese Traditional Policemen/ Watchmen, who actively patrol the surrounding to make sure that everyone is at home.

• Try to make as little noise as possible and please don’t play your music out loud

For 24 hours you will see a different side of Bali. This is a good time to meditate and find your inner peace as the vibrant island falls into a completely peaceful and quiet state. Therefore, everyone should minimize any possible noise. Please take care of your children also so they won’t make too much noise. This could be challenging but please be patient.

• Don’t light any fire and please keep the lights down to a minimum. Especially if you are staying nearby those who are performing the Nyepi rituals.

This is also important because many people will keep the lights off during Nyepi’s eve. Therefore, here you can see the beauty of the night quite sky.
