The Garden of One Thousand Buddhas, Buddhist garden in Arlee, Montana, United States.

The garden contains one thousand hand-cast Buddha statues arranged in eight spokes around a central 24-foot statue of Yum Chenmo in western Montana's Jocko Valley.

The Garden of One Thousand Buddhas opened in 2000 after Gochen Tulku Sang-ngag Rinpoche purchased the land and received approval from the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes.

Following the Nyingma School of Tibetan Buddhism traditions, the garden features one thousand stupas surrounding the outer circle, each containing an image of Tara deity.

The garden welcomes visitors daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, offering guided tours between April and October at 34756 White Coyote Road in Arlee.

The garden's layout forms a 750-foot circular monument representing the wheel of dharma, with eight symmetrical concrete spokes containing 125 meditating figures each.
