Welcome back my Steemian friends to another Episode of TimTravels!
As promised I will travel more in the next weeks. After I succesesfully passed my last exam I booked my next flights! On some destinations I will travel alone, on others my girlfriend will join me and in other locations, I might meet some Steemians!
So far the next known destinations are Singapore, Malaysia, Italy and perhaps Japan! (If you have any recommandations or want to meet me let me know)
Not only do I want to share my photographs with you but I also want to give you a better insight on the places I visited. Therefor I came up with the idea to write travel reviews. In todays post we will have a look at the famous Monkey Forest of Ubud and learn more about this touristical attraction.
1) Where to find the Monkey forest!
© OpenStreetMap-Mitwirkende
Jalan Monkey Forest
Kutuh, Ubud
Bali 80571, Indonesia
2) Only 3,46$ Entrance? Let's go!
Children : IDR. 40.000
At the time of writing 1 IDR are approximatly 0,000069 US-Dollar, so 50.000 IDR are 3,46 US-Dollar.
3) Never ever break one of the following rules, please.
Never watch directly in the eyes of the monkeys. It might make them feel threatened and react aggressinly
Do not carry open bags or loose items with you. The monkeys are very smart and will try to grab your bag in the hope to find some food inside. Also, it quite often happens that they catch your phone or your sunglasses and will want to exchange them for some food! No kidding, they do it
Never touch one of their infants. The monkeys will think you want to harm their babies and protect them heavily. So keep a safe distance and never get too close to them
Under no circumstances feed the wild animals with food you brought. They have a special diet and giving them your food might cause damage to them and even end up in their death. If you want to feed the monkeys you can buy some bananas which are sold in the forest
4) Monkeys, love my camera
Some pictures I took of the monkeys:
5) What views you can expect
Here are some shots of the forest itself. You will notice the incredible amount of green you can see. High trees, tropical bushes, vines and flowers cover all the forest. The perfect home for the monkeys!
6) Conclusion
If you are in Bali or plan to visit the island I highly do recommend you to visit the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary. Never before did I get so close to wild monkeys and could watch them in their natural habitat. Make you sure to have a vaccination against rabies in case you get bitten or hurt by one of the monkeys. However, it spoke to many locals and the guides of the park and they explained that an attack by the monkeys rarely happens. As long as you follow the behavior rules the monkey will remain peacefully and you will have a great time in Ubud.
In August Expolrio, the world's first decentralized travel reviews platform will launch their demo and I am preparing reviews which will be then posted on Steemit and Explorio. I wrote this post so I already can excersive how to write reviews. For more check out Explorio.com!

Beautiful photos! I went there a few years ago and I can really relate to your experiences. Got a good laugh! If you have the time, I highly recommend the 5 day boat trips from Lombok to Flores. You get to see so much of Indonesia for a really good deal. And since you're into photography the crew will take you to some spectacular sceneries. And check out Raja Ampat, they call it "the jewel of Indonesia" for a real good reason! Enjoy your travels.

Great info for people wanting to visit Monkey forest :)
I've been to Ubud several times but never to Monkey forest. Our first hotel in Ubud was right opposite and the monkeys came over, they stole our food, hang out on the balcony. I saw how aggressive they can be and I started being afraid of them, so we decided not to go there ever :)

I find it hard to understand how you can get a lot of money for amateur photos and not even frame very well or not see much in some of them.

Beautiful photos,the scenery is magical! We have different monkeys here in Costa Rica like this squirrel monkey and they don’t interact with people which may be a good thing overall. They do pass very close to my balcony though when the troop visits the ice cream bean tree nearby to eat. I loved your post thank you. I have not yet adventured in Bali.

Nice tips about monkeys....
I once travelled to Nathiagali Pakistan.... There were a lot of monkeys there. I stopped on the road side to grasp some pictures and I left the rear window of my car open, a sneaky monkey got into my car and stole my purse....
Latter I had to give them some bananas to get my purse back.... Monkeys can really blackmail you for food.. They are really a smart creature :)

Amazing! I went to that exact forest a year ago. Funny story, a monkey snatched my LA Dodgers cap and brought it up to the trees. I was so pissed but then I paid a local Rp20,000 or about $2 to get my cap back, where he climbed the tree my cap was in and took it back. Fortunately, it came back to me in mint condition like it was before. What a crazy experience I had. Hoped you enjoyed the your time in the forest, awesome post! :)

That's very cool! Just the nature setting itself (even without monkeys!) looks pretty amazing, at least compared to our nature around here.
I know monkeys can be pretty fierce and territorial but I'm guessing the whole idea of monkeys attacking visitors is mostly based on "visitors behaving like ignorant idiots." Something I sadly know well... we live in a tourist town!
