In this video, you will explore Arashiyama Monkey Park with me. Iwatayama Monkey Park is located in Arashiyama Kyoto, Japan. The park is on Mt Arashiyama, on the opposite side of the Ōi River. It is inhabited by over 120 Japanese macaque monkeys. Hiking to Arashiyama Monkey Park can take about 30 minutes from the ticket office. When you reach the park at the top, you will see an area where you can buy peanuts or apples and feed the monkeys through a cage.
Arashiyama is one of Kyoto’s busiest tourist areas. You can watch my video of Arashiyama district here: https://youtu.be/N3xBRoIrHSw

That's alot of monkeys!
Nice video. Never thought, there is a Monkey park where monkeys roam around so freely and interact with visitors on a friendly basis.
