Mosteiro Zen Morro da Vargem, Buddhist temple in Ibiraçu, Brazil.

Mosteiro Zen Morro da Vargem is a Soto Zen monastery founded in 1974 in Ibiraçu, Espírito Santo, at 350 metres altitude. Its 150 hectares include 140 hectares of protected and reforested Atlantic Forest. At the entrance on the BR-101 is the Praça Torii, with a torii gate, a Japanese stone garden, a carp pond, a chapel of Nossa Senhora da Penha and the large Buddha statue of Ibiraçu.

The monastery was founded in 1974 by monk Ryotan Tokuda and was the first Zen Buddhist center established in Latin America. It follows the Soto Zen school, a tradition that traces its roots to Japan.

The monastery's Estação Cultural, active since 1995, serves as an artist residency, studio and gallery, hosting artists who want to work away from the city. It also keeps ties with rural communities through folk festivals and craft fairs. The Japanese name Hakuunzan Zenkoji is also used for the centre.

The monastery is easy to reach by car from the BR-101 Norte, but public transport options are limited in this rural area. A morning visit tends to work best, as the forest is cooler and the grounds are less busy than in the afternoon.

Although it is an active monastery, it regularly welcomes laypeople to multi-day retreats where meditation is combined with hands-on work in the forest. These retreats are open to people of different backgrounds, not only to those who follow Buddhism.
