Temples: The Monkey Forest grounds are home to three Hindu temples, all apparently constructed around 1350. The Pura Dalem Agung Padangtegal ("Padangtegal Great Temple of Death"), also known as the Main Temple, lies in the southwestern part of the park. The temple is used for worshiping the god Hyang Widhi in personification of Shiva, the Recycler or Transformer. The Pura Beji, or Beji Temple, in the northwestern part of the park, is used for the worship of Hyang Widhi in personification of the goddess Gangga. A "Holy Spring" bathing temple, it is a place of spiritual and physical cleansing and purification prior to religious ceremonies.

Some coffee plantations may not give you the real deal (especially if you’re looking for more specialist blends). AND in some cases coffee plantations keep Luwaks in captivity (small civet cats) to make Kopi Luwak. More on this soon. • Many of the coffee plantations have shops attached. Be aware that coffee in these shops may actually be well above the market price – sometimes charging a lot more per gram than the airport. • Some of the best coffee plantations in Bali are linked to resorts.
