The Tao Garden Health Resort Chiang Mai is a holistic and Ayurveda retreat about 30 minutes outside of central Chiang Mai. The maxim here is simple: Good air, good food and good water equal good health. The resort spreads over several hectares to provide the quiet and tranquil surroundings to heal and cleanse body and soul. The Tao Garden was founded by a Tao Meditation and Qi Gong master with over 30 years experience. The Tao Garden is not only drug, alcohol and nicotine free but also almost self-sufficient and grows its own vegetables and fruits, and rears several types of animals.
