Visiting Alas Kedaton, Tabanan, Bali




Alas Kedaton is a Monkey Forest located in Tabanan, Bali. This is definitely a place for MONKEY LOVERS! Even though the monkeys are more behaved and friendly compared to Sangeh and Uluwatu, it is a must to be escorted by a tour guide when you enter this place. The guide will instruct you on how to feed the monkeys and how to avoid too much L-O-V-E from the monkeys!

As at similar areas, the monkeys are always thrilled by the peanuts! You can buy peanuts at a booth provided in the garden for only Rp. 3000 approximately US$0.30 (30 cents). You are allowed to give the peanuts to the monkeys and they will play and climb on your shoulder, or actually, all over you! Sort of cool, if you like Monkeys, but still, be calm and careful!

Be really careful when you are in very close contact with the Monkeys, because sometimes, if they don’t understand your “affection” they might scratch or bite you. Fortunately, the monkeys are regularly injected; therefore they are tetanus-free.

I had a blast playing with the monkeys at this park! And I know you will too!! So,you should visit this park and experience it by yourself!!

I don't know but I really hate monkeys. When I was in Bali a few months ago I intentionally avoided going to places that I know where monkeys live ;)

Alas kedaton ya?
Haha... Jd ingat pas ke bali. Emang monyet ny jinak2 bgt. Aq jg smpat photo2 dg monyet ny.
Tp hati2,bagi yg membawa kantong kresek, monyet2 d sana ada bkat rampok loh, krn monyet2 itu mengira isi ny makanan.
Salam kenal ya...
