Dhamma Kamala, "The Lotus of Dhamma", was established after Goenkaji, Mataji, and other senior teachers had traveled to Thailand to conduct several non-center Vipassana courses. The first ten-day course has commenced in November 1992. In August 1998, Goenkaji inaugurated the main building in the center, composed of a golden pagoda at the top center, a spacious meditation hall, and 128 individual cells. The center gradually and continuously expanded to meet the demand of students.
The center is in a quiet rural village, situated on an area of 6 acres, in the district of Dong-Kee-Lek, Amphur Muang, Prachinburi province, nearby the Khao-Yai Nataional Park, classified as the world heritage reserve. The center is 170 kilometers east of Bangkok, along the Bangkok-Sakaew Highway. By car, it is a two-hour drive from Bangkok and half way to the Cambodian border. https://kamala.dhamma.org/Dhamma Kamala Vipassana Meditation Center, Prachinburi, Thailand
