Luhur Poten Temple is surrounded by dust as Tenggerese Hindu worshippers and villagers gather at Mount Bromo's crater to throw their offerings, during the Yadnya Kasada festival in Probolinggo, East Java, Indonesia, on June 22, 2024. The festival has been held by the Tenggerese since the 13th century to express their devotion and gratitude to their ancestors and gods, thousands of people trek to the top of Mount Bromo (2,329m) and end their ritual by hurling offerings into the volcano's crater. “To respond to what the Almighty has conveyed through nature, the people must adapt and they should not forget to pray”, said Suyitno, a Tenggerese spiritual leader.
