Plum Village

New Hamlet - one of the four settlements.

Plum Village (Làng Mai) is a Buddhist meditation center in the Dordogne department in southern France . It was founded in 1982 by the Vietnamese monk Thích Nhất Hạnh , who has lived there ever since. Retreats are held there every year and are attended by thousands of people from all over the world.

In 2017, the life of the community was documented in the film Walk With Me by Marc Francis and Max Pugh.
