The Balinese Ramayana, also known as the "Kakawin Ramayana," is an Indonesian version of the ancient Indian epic, the Ramayana. It is a poetic narrative that retells the story of Prince Rama, his wife Sita, and his loyal companion Hanuman, as they embark on a journey filled with trials and tribulations. What distinguishes the Balinese Ramayana from other versions is its unique interpretation and cultural infusion. The Balinese adaptation incorporates elements of local folklore, traditional dance, and music, creating a distinct artistic expression. The narrative is not only a literary work but also serves as a source of inspiration for various performing arts in Bali, such as the famous Balinese dance-drama called the "Ramayana Ballet."
