Development

The Pha Tad Ke Botanical Garden does not receive government funding and is entirely supported by revenues from visitors, our shop and restaurant and grants from private and public organizations and your kind donations. You can make a direct donation here.

Furthermore to support our work we also provide Consultations and Trainings in Lao as well as English Professional Gardening Services and have decorative plants from our nursery available for Sale to hotels as well as private customers.

We are now launching the fundraising campaign for the second phase of our development: the installation of our Research and Education Facilities accompanied by an intensive 5-years capacity building and research program. For more information please read more here:
Press Release and Proposed 5-years Research Programs 2nd phase.

A major component to develop our project is to create an ecotourism complex of the highest standard, and to integrate a first class resort adjoining the garden. We are now seeking interested parties to advance on this part of our development and are offering 1,47 hectare of the property for sale or lease. The resort property is prime waterfront location and totally independent from garden operations (please see attached map of garden and property), but may also benefit from shared services with the garden eg regular boat shuttle to town. The proposed resort development should be in synthesis in design and ethos to the natural and garden environment around the property and Luang Prabang Heritage requirements. We are especially interested in proposals that include development of spa, health treatments and well-being programs to create synergy with the gardens goals and focus.
