Itinerary

1. The Monkey Forest in Ubud, also called the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary, is one of Bali’s most popular tourist attractions. It is a natural forest filled with over 1,000 long-tailed monkeys that live freely among the trees, paths, and temples. Inside the forest, you will find three ancient Balinese Hindu temples, which are still used for ceremonies today. The temples are more than 600 years old and show the deep spiritual and cultural traditions of Bali. Visitors come to enjoy the beautiful green scenery, see the monkeys in their natural habitat, and experience the peaceful, spiritual feeling of the area. There are also many stone carvings, statues, and bridges that make the forest feel magical. The Monkey Forest also teaches an important Balinese philosophy called Tri Hita Karana, which means living in harmony with god, other people and nature.

This system is based on community cooperation and the Balinese philosophy of harmony with nature.

About Ubud

Ubud is Bali's cultural heart, a town of temples, craft villages and dance set among rice terraces and river gorges in the island's green uplands.

The town centres on the Ubud Palace and the busy market opposite, with traditional dance performed in temple courtyards in the evenings. Saraswati Temple's lotus ponds sit just off the main road, and the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary shelters long-tailed macaques among moss-covered shrines and giant banyan trees.

Top-ranked sights in Ubud: Tegalalang Rice Terrace (Sawah Terasering Tegalalang), Tegenungan Waterfall (Air Terjun Tegenungan), Tirta Empul Temple (Pura Tirta Empul).
