From the Ko Samui World / Places

Secret Buddha Garden (Tarnim Magic Garden)

A private sculpture garden in Ko Samui's interior hills, with stone figures beside a shaded stream. The highland approach takes more planning than a coastal stop.

Secret Buddha Garden (Tarnim Magic Garden)

Why go

This is a place to wander among figures drawn from Buddhist stories, deities and animals, then follow the stream toward its small waterfall. Despite the familiar name, it is a garden rather than a wat. Its setting and sculptures make a different outing from the island's large temple complexes.

What to look for

  • Stone figures depict Buddhist folklore, deities and animals.
  • A shaded stream and small waterfall run through the garden.
  • The garden is a private sculpture project, not a temple.

Useful to know

  • Check the hill route and transport with a local provider before setting out.
  • Confirm current access before making the inland journey.
