Lose yourself in the magic of nature, culture, and a few monkey selfies.
The Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary in Ubud is a magical blend of lush jungle, ancient temples, and playful wildlife. Home to over a thousand long-tailed macaques, the forest offers visitors a rare chance to walk among free-roaming monkeys in their natural habitat. Towering banyan and nutmeg trees create a serene canopy, casting dappled light over moss-covered statues and centuries-old shrines. This sacred site is deeply rooted in Balinese Hindu beliefs, symbolizing the harmony between humans, nature, and the spiritual world. As you explore winding stone paths, you’ll encounter curious monkeys, tranquil streams, and glimpses of Bali’s living traditions. It’s a peaceful, slightly wild, and deeply cultural experience all in one. A visit to the Monkey Forest is both an adventure and a spiritual journey through the heart of Ubud.
