In an audacious leap towards greener pastures, SAMA Garden, under the dexterous leadership of Mr. Pitiphatr Buri, Chief Executive Officer of BHIRAJ BURI GROUP, has blossomed into life in the vibrant heart of Bangkok. Officially unveiled on 6 May 2025, this verdant wonder is nestled within the BITEC BURI complex in Bangna, sprawling over 11,000 square meters of pure green magic, and was manifested with a whopping THB 2 billion sprinkling of eco-gold. SAMA Garden is a true oasis — a sanctuary where the city’s hustle and bustle fade into memories as visitors immerse themselves in the joys of green living.

“What we set out to create with SAMA Garden is a place where nature once again becomes intertwined with our daily urban lives,” explains Mr. Pitiphatr, his eyes twinkling with the possibilities of a greener future. “Post-pandemic life has called us back to our roots. People are yearning for genuine connections, not just with other humans but with the natural world itself. SAMA Garden promises to fulfill that longing.”

The inspiration behind the name “SAMA” comes from ‘Samakom’, the Thai word for ‘community’. This concept breathes life into the venue’s purpose as a shared haven for those who revel in the leafy embrace of nature and conscientious consumption. Organized into a dozen delectably curated zones, there is something here for everyone:

  • House of Plants – Home to more than 1,000 plant species, ensuring botanical bliss for every enthusiast, from novice to pro.
  • Lifestyle Hall – A marketplace of dreams featuring sustainable and design-driven Thai brands. Ethical shopping has never been so fun!
  • Workshop Space – Creativity knows no bounds here. Engage in hands-on learning and DIY activities that are bound to unleash your inner artist or inventor.
  • Kids Zone – Where nature-inspired play meets learning, enchanting the imagination of our youngest visitors.
  • Library Zone – A serene haven for book lovers with an extensive collection of nature-themed reads, perfect for a quiet afternoon getaway.
  • Pets Zone – An all-encompassing retail experience for animal lovers, ensuring your furry friends aren’t left out of the fun.
  • GAYA Restaurant & Bar and GAYA Tea Room – Offers a culinary journey of wholesome food and herbal libations in an atmospheric green setting.
  • Event Space – A lush backdrop for weddings, launches, and private gatherings, making your special moments even more unforgettable.

The heartbeat of SAMA Garden beats in rhythm with over 70 meticulously selected local and international brands, collectively championing conscious consumption and propelling Thailand’s booming creative economy. For the lifestyle seeker, there’s expert plant services, garden tools, and an outdoor furniture section, ensuring sustainable living doesn’t compromise style.

From 22 May 2025, SAMA Garden opens its gates to the public, offering a green utopia for families, wellness enthusiasts, pet owners, and plant aficionados alike. Access is a breeze with the BTS Skytrain at Bangna Station (Exit 1), linked by a direct skywalk, or by car with conveniently available underground parking.

So, mark your calendars and prepare for an escape into nature’s embrace, where every visit to SAMA Garden is a recital of the harmonious song between mankind and Mother Earth. Ready to cultivate your soul and spirit amongst the serenity of greenery? SAMA Garden awaits!

    It’s impressive to see such a significant investment in green spaces! Urban areas need more of these eco-friendly sanctuaries.

    • Ashton44 May 7, 2025

      Indeed, but I wonder if it’s more of a luxury given the cost. Will everyone be able to access such a place?

      • Danielle L May 7, 2025

        That’s a valid concern, Ashton. I hope they implement measures to make it accessible to all, regardless of income.

      • GreenThumb May 7, 2025

        I think the location’s accessibility via public transport is a good start, but it’s true, entry fees could deter some people.

    Finally, a place where I can take my kids and dog to enjoy nature without leaving the city!

    • EcoSkeptic May 7, 2025

      But isn’t it ironic? We create nature zones because we’re constantly destroying natural habitats elsewhere.

      • NatureNut May 7, 2025

        It’s true, but small steps like these might inspire bigger changes in how we integrate nature into urban planning.

  3. SophiaM May 7, 2025

    The workshop spaces sound amazing. It’s hard to find places that encourage creative eco-friendly skills these days.

    • SustainableSara May 7, 2025

      Agreed, Sophia! Hopefully, it will influence more people to take up sustainable practices at home.

      • CraftyKate May 7, 2025

        I can’t wait to try my hand at some DIY there. It’s a win-win for personal growth and the planet.

  4. Critic231 May 7, 2025

    The linking of luxury brands to a green sanctuary is kinda contradictory. Isn’t luxury consumption part of the environmental problem?

    • LuxuryLover88 May 7, 2025

      Not necessarily! Luxury brands can lead in sustainability through responsible sourcing and production.

  5. YoungEnviro May 7, 2025

    I just hope the kids’ zone isn’t just an afterthought. Kids really need to learn about nature early on!

    • TobyTheKid May 7, 2025

      Yes! I want to play with animals and plants, that sounds cool.

    • YoungEnviro May 7, 2025

      That’s the spirit, Toby! Learning through playing with nature is the best teacher.

  6. Elle G May 7, 2025

    Such eco-friendly spots are vital for mindful consumption, but how do the prices in the Lifestyle Hall compare to regular products?

    • FrugalFrank May 7, 2025

      Good question, Elle. I worry these products, though sustainable, might be priced out of reach for most.

  7. TechyAlice May 7, 2025

    I think it’s great how technology can help create and maintain such a sustainable space. Automatic irrigation systems, anyone?

  8. Larry Davis May 7, 2025

    I wonder how much flora diversity fits into those 1,000 species. Are we going to see any endangered species protected?

  9. CitySlicker May 7, 2025

    Bangkok desperately needs more spaces like this. We’ve had enough of concrete jungles!

    • UrbanGardener May 7, 2025

      Couldn’t agree more! Let’s reclaim the concrete spaces and turn them green.

  10. Brooke B May 7, 2025

    I hope the gardens are maintained organically without pesticides, and they use indigenous plants.

  11. PetPals23 May 7, 2025

    The inclusion of pets is a nice touch! Pet-friendly places are few and far between in cities.

  12. Bobby May 7, 2025

    What an article, I just hope we see more green initiatives like this one in other major cities.
