The Monastery of the Kai was the religious domicile of the Bajoran spiritual leader on Bajor.
The monastery featured several gardens and arboretums with rivers, plants, waterfalls, and bridges.
In 2369, Commander Benjamin Sisko visited the monastery and met Vedek Bareil Antos for the first time in the gardens of the monastery. Bareil started his service at the monastery as a gardener after the Occupation of Bajor. (DS9: "In the Hands of the Prophets")
The monastery garden location was shot at Fern Dell (Ferndale), a section of Hollywood's Griffith Park in Los Angeles. (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion; Star Trek Encyclopedia)
The statues in the garden, seen in the background of the image, were sketched and designed by Ricardo Delgado and featured throughout of the run of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion)
