Kedaton Monkey Forest that is the name widely used to refer spot of land with high trees densely growing in an area of around 100 hectares located closed to Mengwi town known for it's Taman Ayun Temple. The name Kedaton refers to a place where king palace was constructed. It might be true that during 16^th century when the area of Tabanan kingdom broke into various small vassals, one small king might had lived here. As the fact that the king of Mengwi was before had their palace built very closed the area of Kedaton. Today Kedaton is a nature reserve where live dozen of wild moneys and big fruit bats known as flying foxen. After the gate of the reserve is a medium temple showing a great influence of megalithic tradition. There are various natural stone being seated on an altars in the middle of the temple which is also named as Pura Kedaton. This name also lead to an assumption that this temple was belong to one of the small kingdom at the moment, so the meaning is as if it is the temple belong to the palace ( temple belong to the Kedaton ). In 1981 the department of Archaeology University of Udayana carried out an excavation in this area to clear out the misleading believe of the local people that the monkey burry their dead member in a spot of land with many small dooms.
