Welcome to Khao Tham Center

Vipassana meditation retreats are offered in the beautiful forested hills above Baan Tai, on Koh Pha Ngan, Thailand. The retreats are taught and managed by experienced meditation teachers at no charge. All meals and accommodation are provided, and those costs can only be covered by your donation.

Donation: All teachings and guidance are given by our teachers at no charge. However the food and supply shops are not so generous, so we must request a donation of Bt 5,000 to cover your physical needs while on retreat.
