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!

Sorry for the obsessive advertising. It is necessary to earn.
Love Monkey?
I followed and up votes you. please followback @burn4363
looks col...
How likely, would you estimate that these beautiful creatures are going to last? I worry about our environment.
It is a sanctuary. Monkeys are protected and probably will outlast us softie humans....
@timsaid to judge by the images this was an incredible ride, the place itself invites you to visit it, I heard many good history of the place. congratulations for visiting
Images like seimpre are truly beautiful
I wish you a beautiful Sunday
Life of a Tourist seems quite interesting ...Thanks for sharing these amazing pictures and moments for some of us that can't afford it yet...By the way i envy your skills in photography!!!
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.
Wow. That is one spectacular place. I might just have to add it to a long list of places that I want to visit someday.
That is a place worth visiting and i never heard about it before. These monkeys are looking more innocent than they actually are :p
Your photography is really good. Keep up the good work!
If looking at this from Steemit.com the pictures are much bigger than they look.
That's That's good advertising and adventure.. Thanks for sharing
nice post and your pictures are amazing
I like your idea this is good Adventures idea! But this is safe for people on there safer side ?????
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 :)
great
Thank you~ beautiful and amazing pics.
This makes me want to get intro photography
Picture are great although they are taken by you sir why not you add India in your travel list @timsaid
Beautiful and atructive....
Monkey's are cool but I have This unjust Feelings that they are tragedic to be lower than humans . Or what do u guys think ?
Or they may probably go extinct!!
Travel is the pleaser of life
Some of the best photos I've seen of such an exotic place with very cool and calm monkeys. Pass the bananas...
Spectacular! Picture that you have captured after seeing the beautiful place I'll definitely visit that place once in my life. Tourism is a great adventure where we can see many animals and nature as well.
I read your post and i think a few things:
-1. Its awesome that you can travel when you feel like it.
-2. You have to go to Latinoamérica
-3. If you go to Latinoamérica, what contry do you visit?.

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.
Been to Monkey Island in Vietnam and they were hectic! I think they are the same in Ubud.
Amazing natural photography,
Great post!
Thanks for tasting the eden!
Wow this is great after reading your concepts I am very much excited to see this forest and thank you for sharing your knowledge
amazing photography
Thanks for walking us through sacred monkey forest. You explained nicely. Many times monkey snatched my food. They are very clever but definitely harmless.
nice and goood post , carry on, go ahead brother. thanks @timsaid
Amazing photography....its AWESOME
ohh nice photo!!!
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 :)
Wow this is like adream come true.
I have always wanted to go a forest like this. I love animals mostly monkeys.
I would surely visit if possible for me and I will follow your guidance.
