Good question, you see quite a few of them in Bali. All awesome. Lets see what I can remember: They are Hindu and you see them guarding most temples. Since every house has a temple of some sort- they are everywhere. They work for good and protect us from Rangda the demon queen. They are fun loving, playful, and mischievous. Here are a few of my favorite Barongs, and a few favorite not-a-barongs as well
1- Barong. outside our hotel
2- not-a-barong. watching over the beach
3- not-a-barong. Just a thumbs down tourist
4- not-a-barong. But I would like to see more of these all over the world

10-not-a-barong. Just Lisa.
11. not-a-barong. But that water!
12-not-a-barong. Just a monkey god
13. Also not a barong- but these entrances are beautiful! I should have written a post just on them.
Thanks Bali, and thanks barongs, for watching over us
