In the local dialect Spiti means “in between”. It has earned this name since it lies in the middle of Tibet and India. That is why, it offers the most unique blend of cultures. That is not all, Spiti is the land of the Desert Mountains of the Upper Himalayan Region, which was cut off from the mainland for a very long time. Nevertheless, it was the seat of the Buddhist Renaissance in India – where it traveled back from Tibet in the 10th Century. It is the land of the most picturesque monasteries in the world. Moreover, traveling to Spiti takes you across dramatically changing landscapes and exciting roads which are famous all around the globe for their difficult terrain. However, the roads are no match to the experience of being in Land of the Gods.
