While the entertainment value of the festival is high, organizers are quick to point out that it's not just monkey business.
Monkeys are seen eating fruits and vegetables during the 34th annual Monkey Party Festival, at the Phra Prang Sam Yot temple in Lopburi province, north of Bangkok. .
As the carefully prepared feast was brought toward the temple, the ravenous creatures began to pounce and were soon devouring the largely vegetarian spread. "Previously, there were around 300 monkeys in Lopburi before increasing to nearly 4,000 nowadays. But Lopburi is known as a monkey city, which means monkeys and people can live in harmony."
"There was a monkey on my back as I was trying to take a selfie. He grabbed the sunglasses right off my face and ran off on to the top of a lamppost and was trying to eat them for a while," said Ayisha Bhatt, an English teacher from California working in Thailand.
