Tualen: The Divine Counselor

In Balinese mythology, Tualen (the Balinese counterpart to the Javanese Semar) is one of the most revered characters.

As a counselor who solves the most difficult situations with wit and insight, Tualen is a true protector and the most beloved figure of the Wayang theater.
