Priceless Buddhist Wisdom - I wanted to understand Buddhism more as I have been traveling the world in search of spirituality. This experience showed me all the basics of Buddhism and how to meditate and practice according to their belief system. It was wonderful and Hieu was an excellent teacher. ☺️

Highly recommended.

Our guide was incredibly sweet, patient, and open, adapting the experience to suit our needs. I highly recommend coming here, especially for those looking for a peaceful, nature-filled retreat that also offers insight into Vietnamese culture and Buddhism.

A unique experience - I had an amazing two-day experience with a wonderful group and learned a lot about the principles of Buddhism. Thanks to our wonderful guide and the beautiful surroundings, I was immersed in a serene and peaceful environment that allowed me to truly relax and enjoy my time there. Hung, our guide, shared profound insights with us. The rooms were very clean and beautifully maintained, and the food was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this course to anyone looking for a unique and enriching experience.

If you want a WOW factor experience try Yen Tu mountain Buddhist retreat. - This was the most beautiful thing I have experienced. The guide was authentic and knowledgeable. Nothing from arranging transport to any inquiries was a problem for Hung. He is a genuine compassionate soul. The natural environment and buildings are astounding. It has cemented my quest to follow the path of Buddhism and show compassion, non judgement, non attachment and defeat of the ego as best I possibly can.

Good but must be able to do lotus pose - The food, village grounds/buildings and accommodation were really great. Our fellow participants were also wonderful, as was our instructor. We learned some great information about Buddhism and had some wonderful open group discussions which we absolutely loved. However, the meditation sessions were physically very uncomfortable and those of us who could not achieve the lotus pose were discouraged from meditating, which was frustrating. Our own experience of meditation (however humble and inexperienced it may be) is best achieved when the body is in a comfortable position. If there was more flexibility for this (not adhering strictly to Buddhist teachings, for those of us who are not experienced with the lotus pose, but have paid to attend), the sessions would have been much more enjoyable. All in all, we left feeling a little deflated about this aspect, but cannot deny it was an eye-opening experience, with incredibly delicious vegetarian food that just kept coming! :D
