An effigy known as “Ogoh-ogoh” symbolising evil is displayed in a field in the residential area in Jimbaran district as the Indonesian holiday island shut down for a day of silence to mark Nyepi, the Hindu new year on March 31, 2014. Retailers closed their shops and many tourists stayed inside their hotels for a day of reflection that is supposed to be free from daily routine, including work and play. Guards with sticks and traditional daggers enforced the public observance among the Hindu- majority population. (Photo by Sonny Tumbelaka/AFP Photo)
