10 Marvellous places in Sikkim must visit once in lifetime, surely you will love it

Namchi
Namchi is also famous for its giant statutes. It currently has two of them - one Buddhist and one Hindu - and a third one is apparently being planned. The Buddhist statue, of Guru Padmasambhava (credited with introducing Tantric Buddhism to the Hinalayan region), reaches around 140 feet tall. It has a commanding position on Samdruptse Hill, 7,000 feet above sea level. Not quite as tall but perhaps more impressive is the white 108 foot high Lord Shiva statue at Solophuk Hill, five kilometers south of Namchi.
