Ubud Monkey Forest

The Ubud Monkey Forest is a popular tourist destination located in the village of Padangtegal, in Ubud, Bali, Indonesia. Also known as the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary, it is a natural habitat and conservation area that is home to hundreds of long-tailed macaque monkeys (Macaca fascicularis).

Spread over approximately 12.5 hectares of lush tropical forest, the Ubud Monkey Forest offers visitors a unique opportunity to observe these monkeys in their natural environment. The sanctuary is not only a haven for wildlife but also serves as an important site for Balinese Hindu culture and spiritual practices.

Visitors can explore the forest through well-maintained pathways that wind through dense vegetation, ancient trees, and moss-covered temples. Within the sanctuary, there are three temples of significant cultural and historical importance: Pura Dalem Agung Padangtegal, Pura Beji, and Pura Prajapati.

While the monkeys are the main attraction, visitors are advised to exercise caution as the animals are wild and can be unpredictable. It's important to follow the guidelines provided by the sanctuary to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for both humans and monkeys.

Apart from observing the monkeys, visitors can also enjoy the tranquil surroundings, lush greenery, and serene atmosphere of the forest. The Ubud Monkey Forest is not only a tourist attraction but also an important conservation and educational site, promoting awareness about the importance of preserving natural habitats and protecting wildlife in Bali.
