Never try to feed the monkeys. Just maintain a respectful distance to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience while exploring the ancient city.

They are generally not aggressive unless provoked. Remember to keep your belongings securely zipped and avoid carrying loose snacks or plastic bags that look like they contain food.
