Another one of the many monkeys at the Welsh Mountain Zoo. Shot through green perspex so white balance and shooting in general was very difficult.

Iwatayama Monkey Park is just 5-10 minutes walk from Arashiyama Bamboo Forest. The entrance fee is roughly 550 yen. When we got into the park, there are some rules that we have to follow as the monkeys can be quite aggressive. Most of the monkeys there live on top of the mountain so we had to hike up there, which took us around 15-20mins of hiking. Good thing is that it was cold in Kyoto. Otherwise, I would skip this location.
When we got up on the mountain, there are so many monkeys. As long as you don't get too close to them, they are quite friendly. If you want to feed these monkeys, you will have to go into the feeding room and buy fruits from there. The price is pretty reasonable. The monkeys will stand outside the house waiting for tourists to give them food. :)
Location: Iwatayama Monkey Park, Kyoto (Japan)
张家界－金鞭溪 －猴王出世
For those of you who know the classical Chinese novel Journey to the West. This macaque is exactly like the monkey king in the novel.
Shot near Golden Whip River in Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in northern part of Hunan province, China. Macaques are frequently spotted alongside the walking path along the river, begging for food from tourists in the park.
