Wat Suan Mokkh, Buddhist monastery in Lamet, Thailand
The monastery features traditional Thai architecture with stone gardens, meditation halls, and natural paths across its 375-acre forest grounds.
Buddhadasa Bhikkhu established this temple on Vesak Day, May 12, 1932, to create a space dedicated to Buddhist practice and teaching.
The Spiritual Theater building contains Buddhist art, sculptures, and philosophical teachings that present meditation concepts through visual representation.
Meditation retreats include accommodation in basic wooden structures, vegetarian meals, and instruction in Buddhist practices from resident monks.
The monastery lacks traditional temple buildings, instead incorporating natural elements like rocks, trees, and flowing water as tools for spiritual learning.
