United Nations Climate Change Award for Low Carbon – Winner in 2016
We, in partnership with the Auroville Earth Institute, designed and built the Kaza Eco-Community Centre with key participation of villagers in Kaza and local earth craftsmen of the Spiti Valley, in India.
The United Nations Award Winning Community Centre in Kaza
If you are travelling from Manali, your first stop will be Kaza, 3,900M above sea level. This is one of the best places to stay in Kaza.
The Community Centre was built by Spiti Projects Charity, and is run by Spiti Projects Society, the local branch of our charity. The rooms look over the mountains and the Spiti river, one of the best views in the world. The building is run in an environmental eco-friendly way using solar energy, the food offered is organic and grown locally.

We suggest you stay two nights to allow your body to adjust to the altitude.
