The day in photos: Jakarta

Los Angeles Times, 25 March 2009



Worshipers carry giant effigy called "ogoh-ogoh" that represents evil spirits during a parade a day before Nyepi, the annual day of silence marking Balinese Hindu new year in Jakarta, Indonesia. Hindus in the world's most populous Muslim country will celebrate their new year Thursday by observing a day of silence in which they stay inside their homes and meditate in silence and darkness for the day.
