Samdruptse Hill, the wish-fulfilling hill in Namchi, is ornamented with a giant statue of the Guru Padmasambhava (Guru Rinpoche). It is a 45 m tall statue overlooking the whole city and is gilded with gold that glitters when the sunlight falls over it and can be seen from as far as Darjeeling. The hill offers the vista of the magnificent Mt. Kangchenzonga. It is believed that the hill is a dormant volcano and only prayers can hold it from erupting. That's why the local monks offer their reverence and devotion to it. The newly constructed ropeway starts from Samdruptse and ends at the rock garden. The best part about this ropeway is the scenic vista of the West and South Sikkim hills and not to forget the mighty Khangchendzonga that sprawls just in front.
