Payung Dance
A very welknown dance among the young people from
the land of Minangkabau West Sumatera. Danced to the tune of Babendi-bendi
(a song about a horse drawn carriage native to that area), this dance portrays
the happy bantering between newly married couples on their honeymoon.
The umbrella becomes a symbol that husband should always protect his wife
from the rain and heat of life.
