A rhesus macaque perches atop the ancient temple wall, scanning the bustling movement of tourists below with sharp eyes. It watches the visitors explore the sacred grounds, exuding quiet authority. One of over 400 macaques inhabiting this revered site, it roams freely among the temple ruins and towering stupas. These intelligent and adaptable primates shape the area’s spiritual and cultural identity.

Hinduism and Buddhism revere rhesus macaques, associating them with deities and honoring them as symbols of devotion, strength, and protection. As they leap effortlessly between stone carvings and sun-warmed ledges, they infuse the temple with an ancient, almost mystical presence, blurring the line between the natural and the divine.
