SAMA Garden has officially opened in Bangna, Thailand, as a unique eco-friendly destination. This vibrant spot blends nature with wellness, shopping, and sustainable living, making it a fresh escape from city life.
Developed by BHIRAJ BURI GROUP, SAMA Garden is the brainchild of CEO Mr. Pitiphatr Buri. He aims to inspire urban dwellers to reconnect with nature. “People are looking for more than just digital interactions; they want real connections with nature, health, and community,” he explains. This 2-billion-baht project spans over 11,000 square meters, featuring a thoughtfully arranged space for everyone.
The name “SAMA” comes from “Samakom,” which means community in Thai. This reflects the center’s vision of being a gathering place for nature lovers and those who care about mindful consumption.
SAMA Garden is divided into 12 engaging zones:

More than 70 curated local and international brands promote conscious consumerism and support Thailand’s creative economy. Additionally, expert plant services, garden tools, and outdoor furniture are available for those looking to enhance their lifestyles.
With its grand opening on May 22, 2025, SAMA Garden is designed for everyone—from families and wellness enthusiasts to pet owners and plant aficionados. It’s easily accessible via the BTS Skytrain at Bangna Station or by car with onsite parking.

SAMA Garden aims to cater to this growing demand, providing a welcoming environment for those seeking an eco-centric lifestyle. Experts agree that such spaces not only benefit individual well-being but also foster community connections and support local economies.
