Know before you go
Keep a safe distance and follow staff instructions. Kyoto City's guide describes feeding through the visitor center's wire fence with food purchased there, rather than feeding the monkeys directly outside. Confirm the park's current visitor arrangements before setting out; the hillside location needs a different plan from a flat street walk.
