Komodo Dragons - Ubud, Bali


Statues of two Komodo Dragons standing guard over the bathing temple in the monkey forest. These dragons are on the banks of a small stream that runs through the middle of the forest. Apparently the locals still use the springs to cleanse themselves prior to visiting the temples.

Dragon Bridge - Ubud, Indonesia


The dragon bridge that leads to the bathing temple within the monkey forest sanctuary in ubud, Bali.  The bridge is quite narrow and seems to cut through a banyan tree at the further end. Details on the age of the bridge are hard to find but the general consensus indicates that it is around 700 years old. Photographing it without people is easier said than done.

Monkey Forest Sanctuary - Ubud, Indonesia


The moss covered outer walls of the main temple within the monkey forest sanctuary in Ubud. The monkeys found in the forest, Balinese long tailed macaques,  are aggressive and have been known to grab food and water bottles out of peoples hands. Unfortunately it happened to us too.
