Perched on the shadowed fringe of Ubud’s Sacred Monkey Forest, Pura Prajapati stands as a silent witness to centuries of life, death and the thin veil between them. Built around 1350AD, this moss cloaked cremation temple is one of the forest’s three ancient sanctuaries, yet its presence carries a weight far beyond stone and mortar.

Hidden among dense jungle in Ubud, the Sacred Monkey Forest is a living tapestry of Balinese culture and nature. Ancient Hindu temples rise amid towering banyan trees, creating an atmosphere of quiet reverence. The forest invites visitors to step into a world where spiritual tradition, wildlife and natural beauty coexist seamlessly, offering a rare glimpse into Bali’s enduring heritage.
