Spiti

Spiti falls in the rain-shadow area with partial Trans-Himalayan Barrenness. Deep in the lap of the Himalayas, this region has preserved its history, culture, and traditions of over a thousand years – no wonder it is popularly known as the Ajanta of the Himalayas. The ancient Hindu temple at Sangtha and the 1000-year-old Monastery at Tabo show a strong presence of the two most important religions, co-existing in harmony since time immemorial.
The awe-inspiring landscape; serene and peaceful environment along with the simplicity of the local culture, enables a visitor to come close to the heart of mother nature and rediscover oneself.
The presence of the elusive Snow Leopards in the winter has made Spiti popular. Come to Spiti if you want to experience Buddhist culture and beautiful mountain nature.
