"Monkeys, Monkeys, Everywhere!" Best Snow Monkey shots this winter

Monkeys, monkeys, everywhere.

Snow Monkeys in pairs--
"Mother and Baby"

"Friends always together"





Snow Monkeys grooming--
"Well-Cared-For Child Monkey"

Bathing in a hot spring, onsen--
" So many Monkeys bathing together!"

Wise-looking Monkeys--
" Deep in thoughts "





People happy watching the Snow Monkeys
" Worth visiting!"

Since 1964, the Snow Monkey Park, the official name of which is Jigokudani yaen-koen, has been visited and loved by millions of people from all over the world. As a place where the interesting life of the Japanese Macaques can be observed nearby, and as a place of unique snow monkeys bathing in natural hot spring (Onsen) , Jigokudani Yaenkoen is just so popular both home and abroad even after the March 11th.




My fellow tour guides and I have conducted Snow Monkey Tours almost every week for more than three months. We tried very hard to successfully cope with the task. Cheerful smiles and happy faces of our guests were our best reward!

The Snow Monkey park will have another lovely season; from late April or May, you will be able to see tiny little nowborns carried in their mothers' arms. There will be no snow on the path to the park anymore. Enjoy a wonderful day in Nagano!
