Spiti (June 2010) - Landscapes & Monasteries
The magnificent and stark landscapes of Spiti (Lahaul & Spiti District of Himachal Pradesh, India) are a sight to behold! A wonder! It is a place where the barren landscapes, snow clad Himalayas, rugged and beautiful people, and the monasteries seem to seamlessly blend; and it is hard to imagine one without the other. Majority of the monasteries in Spiti are over 900 years old and belong to the Vajrayana Buddhist sect.
