Bali barong mask wall hanging Bali, Balinese

 Barong is a lion-like creature and character in the mythology of Bali, Indonesia. He is the king of the spirits, leader of the hosts of good, and enemy of Rangda, the demon queen and mother of all spirit guarders in the mythological traditions of Bali. The battle between Barong and Rangda is featured in Barong dance to represent the eternal battle between good and evil.

In Bali each region of the island has its own protective spirit for its forests and lands. Each Barong for each region is modeled after a different animal. They are:

 1.  Barong Ket: lion barong, the most common Barong, it is the symbol of a good spirit.

2.  Barong Landung: giant barong, the form is similar to Betawi Ondel-ondel

3.  Barong Celeng: boar barong

4.  Barong Macan: tiger barong

5.  Barong Naga: dragon (or serpent) barong
