A city in Thailand laid out plates of fruits, desserts and vegetables on Sunday for thousands of monkeys as a token of appreciation for attracting foreign tourists to the city after a pandemic-induced lull.
Led by businessman Yongyuth Kitwattananusorn, workers and tourists dished out two tons of fruit and vegetables worth over 100,000 baht ($2,801.91) at the annual buffet for about 4000 macaques living on the streets and inside the Phra Prang Sam Yod temple complex in downtown Lopburi.
The hungry macaques were jumping and clambering onto the fruit trays as they picked up their favourite morsels, which was a highlight for some local and foreign tourists.
The festival was started in 1989 by Yongyuth as a way to boost tourism in the province, which is home to the 10th century Phra Prang Sam Yod temple. The macaques will get four different servings of food throughout the day on Sunday
The Monkey Buffet Festival is held annually in Lopburi, Thailand.In 2007, the festival included giving fruits and vegetables to the local monkey population of 2,000 crab-eating macaques in Lopburi Province north of Bangkok.
