Trip Moments Recommendations

The Secret Buddha Garden is located in the interior of Koh Samui, northwest of Lamai Beach. It is very quiet. There are statues, temples, streams, waterfalls and abandoned houses in the garden. The old balcony covered with green moss gives people infinite reverie. It is also a favorite place for photographers. The Secret Buddha Garden, also known as MagicBuda Garden, was founded by a local fruit farmer named Nim Thongsuk, who started the garden in 1976. He and his team have created many lifelike statues with animals, gods and various human poses. Every statue basically has a story, and most Thais will know the meaning and mythology evoked behind these artworks. The Secret Buddha Garden is located at the top of TarNim Waterfall. The road to the garden is very rough. Generally, domestic tourists are advised to report to the local one-day tour team. After arriving at the garden, they will change their four-wheel drive up the mountain. Only experienced local drivers can drive the car. In addition to being an excellent shooting location, whenever the sun sets, the sun shines on a statue of Buddha, and the gilded afterglow reminds people of the Khmer smile, like a miniature version of Angkor Wat.
