Semarang, a city which is located in the north of Java Island, has a tourist destination full of legends. Kreo Cave, the name of a tourist destination has something to do with one of the leaders of Wali Songo, namely Sunan Kalijaga. Not only that, in Kreo Cave, there are many monkeys that live wildly but still protected. Tour guide of Kreo Cave said that the most typical of the tour in Goa Kreo was a historic cave that formerly used by Sunan Kalijaga to meditate. Kreo Goa is said to have a very long depth, so it can penetrate to Demak or Kendal. This cave is guarded by about 400-500 monkeys. They are wild monkeys, but they are already accustomed to the presence of tourists.

If you want to visit this cave, don't bring excessive food. The monkeys here will usually know and seize the food from visitors. It is also advisable not to bring colored drinks because monkeys will be attracted to something colorful and flavorful. Note also, don't carry items which can attract the attention of the monkeys, such as jewelry, hats, and glasses.
