Ubud Monkey Forest is a wildlife sanctuary located in Padangtegal, Ubud, Bali, Indonesia. As of 2023, approximately 1,260 Balinese long-tailed macaques lived in the Monkey Forest. The sanctuary boasts a diverse range of plant and tree species, as well as three temples:

Pura Dalem Agung Padangtegal (“The Great Temple of Death”), also known as the Main Temple, is located in the southwest of the park and is dedicated to the deity Hyang Widhi, personified as Shiva. Pura Beji, or Pura Beji, in the northwest of the park, is dedicated to the deity Hyang Widhi in the form of Ganga. As a “Holy Spring” bathing temple, it serves as a place of spiritual and physical purification before religious ceremonies.

Temples play an important role in the spiritual life of the local community, and monkeys and their mythology are central to Balinese artistic traditions. The Monkey Forest area is sacred to the local community, and parts of it are not open to the public. The temple’s sacred areas are closed to anyone except those wishing to pray and wearing appropriate Balinese attire.
