Blue Cliff Monastery is a mindfulness practice center and monastic training center founded by the Vietnamese Buddhist monk, author, and peace activist--our beloved teacher, Thich Nhat Hanh.
Nestled on 80 acres of beautiful woodland in the southern Catskill region just two hours from New York City–a tranquil sanctuary with pure mountain air and meandering trails and streams, offering space to rest, heal, and grow.
