Exploring Mengwi: Discovering the Beautiful and Sustainable Traditional Village of Mengwi with Its Rich Cultural Heritage
Mengwi is a traditional village located in Badung Regency, Bali Province. On this occasion, we had the opportunity to interview the Bendesa Adat (traditional village leader) of Mengwi, who provided deep insights into the Mengwi Traditional Village in general. A visit to the Ogoh-Ogoh Museum takes the audience into a world of art and creativity, showcasing majestic ogoh-ogoh statues with unique stories behind them. In the handicraft sector, local tedung (Balinese umbrella) artisans demonstrate their skill in creating iconic Balinese umbrellas that are known worldwide. Meanwhile, the enchanting Taman Ayun Temple, with its beautiful architecture and spiritual atmosphere, seemingly transports visitors to the golden era of the Mengwi kingdom.
