Thai Sanctuary

A Hidden Thai Sanctuary 🌳💛 Imagine a grand serene garden adorned with countless Buddha sculptures and Thai street food stalls with spacious communal tables and swings. This heaven of tranquillity exists in France and is closer than you think.

Wat Thammapathip is an ancient castle transformed into a Thai Buddhist pagoda and is approximately 30 minutes away from our hotel. Established in 2000 by the International Thai Buddhist Association of France, the temple is housed within the Château de Lugny, which is a 19th century building.

This 5-hectare estate Buddhist sanctuary welcomes all visitors and the park’s pathways are embellished with 400 golden and ivory-coloured Buddha figures.

You can explore the temple, where it’s customary to remove shoes upon entry. The surrounding gardens feature numerous tables and chairs, making it an ideal spot for families to enjoy Thai street food. Various stands offer dishes such as pad thai, papaya salad, and mango sticky rice, with all proceeds supporting the temple’s maintenance.

The exact address is 243 Rue des Marronniers, 77550 Moissy-Cramayel. You can arrive by car easily; it is 30 km approximately from our hotel. You can take the A4 motorway towards Paris, then merge onto the A104 towards Marne-la-Vallée, and finally take the exit towards Moissy-Cramayel.

Wat Thammapathip offers a unique opportunity to experience Thai culture and cuisine without leaving the Seine-et-Marne region.
