Ubud, the town dubbed the island’s cultural mecca, will host a pelebon (royal cremation) on Tuesday as the Ubud royal family bids farewell to one of its prominent members, Tjokorda Ngurah Wim Sukawati, who served as the Indonesian Ambassador to Switzerland from 1975 to 1979.

Tjokorda Ngurah Wim Sukawati passed away at the age of 90 on Feb. 24, 2013, in a hospital in Jakarta due to illnesses associated with old age. He was the son of the late king of Ubud, Tjokorda Gde Raka Sukawati and Gusti Agung Niang Putu.

His remains arrived in Bali late February and have been rested at the Puri Agung Ubud royal palace, 25 kilometers from Denpasar.
