Corfu Buddha Hall

A timber hall with island-wide views

Greece Corfu paid

A pagoda-style timber roof and a wall of windows give Corfu Buddha Hall a distinctive sense of openness. The purpose-built, 200-square-metre hall stands on a hillside at the edge of Magoulades, an inland village surrounded by olive groves and cypress trees. From its pillar-free wooden floor, views reach across mountains and forest to the distant sea; beaches are a few kilometres away. The venue hosts retreats and events focused on spiritual growth and personal development, with retreats primarily taking place from Sunday to Friday. Saturday evenings are set aside for community events, giving the hall a local life beyond its retreat programme. It’s a striking setting for gatherings that benefit from room to move and an expansive landscape beyond the windows. Retreat themes, schedules and lengths vary, so check with the host before making plans.
