The pagoda located at Nui Lon Mountain in Vung Tau City is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the province.
Initially, several dozen monkeys migrated to the pagoda, but the figure has gradually increased due to the food scarcity on the mountain and rampant hunting activities.
To date, the pagoda has become the habitat for hundreds of monkeys.
Visitors often feed monkeys with nuts and bananas.
Stalls at the pagoda also offer food for the monkeys.
The monkeys here are quite friendly. They have never attacked people.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, some monkeys entered the centre of Vung Tau City to seek food.
