Cak! Cak! Cak!.... At last, I watched Kecak Dance. It was sunset in background of Uluwatu. There is nothing can described the view. The trip to Uluwatu should be on the evening as you can stay longer to wait the Kecak Dance performence at 6 pm.

We asked our driver to buy tickets for the show. The ticket sold 1 hour before the show, there is no que to buy the ticket. So, come early to the ticket counter (actually, there is no counter). The sold it at the open space down a theatre. After you get your ticket, just enter the theather for your sit. Assume everyday will always fullhouse. Bring an umbrella as you sit there for an hour with the sun shine in front of you.

Kecak is a form of Balinese dance and music drama that developed in the 1930s in Bali. It is performed primarily by men, although as of 2006. Also known as the Ramayana Monkey Chant, the piece, performed by a circle of 150 or more performers wearing checked cloth around their waists, percussively chanting "cak" and throwing up their arms, depicts a battle from the Ramayana. The monkey-like Vanara helped Prince Rama fight the evil King Ravana. Kecak has roots in sanghyang, a trance-inducing exorcism dance.
