Mekepung (Bull Races) – Racing Buffalos in Bali!

Bali offers visitors some truly unique holiday experiences and one such example is Mekepung or bull races that take place in Negara. Before heading to the area it is important to find suitable accommodation and if you enjoy the finer things in life then you should look to stay at luxury resorts in Bali. Located amidst breathtaking coastal scenery, Regent Bali is one such Bali luxury resort in the Sanur District. Taking place outside Negara, the bull races in actual fact feature water buffalos and traditionally were held to mark the end of the rice harvest. The animals themselves are adorned with a variety of colours and paraphernalia and they pull a two-wheeled cart with a driver, while being cheered by frenetic crowds!
