The Phra Prang Sam Yot temple in Lopburi is also known as "the monkey temple".
The 13th-century Angkorian temple is a popular tourist destination, because of the large population of crab-eating macaque monkeys (Macaca fascicularis, also called long-tailed macaque), which live in and around the temple grounds. The temple itself is in relatively poor condition.
