Ubud Monkey Forest: Complete Guide : " Bali’s Sacred Sanctuary "


With around 10,000 monthly visitors, the Monkey Forest is definitely one of Ubud’s hot spots. Having an area of 12.5 hectares, the forest is a popular attraction for people who want to get closer to nature.

The monkeys here must live a very happy life since they are free to wander wherever they want. There are no fences or restrictions for them. The Ubud Monkey Park is a free area and the monkeys live there by their choice. However, the spot means so much more to the Balinese culture than just a habitat for monkeys and trees.




The History 

The Ubud monkey forest  has been around for so long that its history was determined through a thorough analysis on the site. Based on analysis conducted by researchers and experts, the temple’s construction dates back to the 14th century, making the Ubud Monkey Forest older than its home country, Indonesia. During that era, the area that now forms Indonesia was governed by separate ancient kingdoms.

The Ubud area itself was a royal neighborhood where royal families live in grand palaces, many of which still stand until now. Unfortunately, due to limited documentations available from that prehistoric time, it’s unclear who exactly built or designed the site.


This monkey forest tourist spot or monkey forest Ubud is classified as the most hits and popular on the island of Bali.In addition to monkeys, in this protected forest you can also find 3 old temples that were built in 1350 in this forest.
These three temples play an important role in the spiritual life of the local community. And monkeys and mythology are important in Balinese art traditions. The Monkey Forest area is purified by the local community. And some sections are not open to the public.


The sacred area of ​​the temple is closed to everyone except those who wish to pray and wear proper Balinese prayer attire.
