The ancient sages called the Himalayas lhayuel—abode of the gods. Here, in the lap of the world’s highest mountains, lie the sacred caves, temples, and monasteries, where great men and women have come to discover the ultimate truth, the path to inner peace and sublime happiness. Honoring that tradition, Kiga offers programmes that are spiritually nourishing and physically invigorating. Ki in Bhutanese means Peace. Ga is the word for Happiness. Put together KIGA reflects our company’s aspirations for the promotion of compassion toward all sentient beings and the pursuit of Peace and Happiness.
