Nestled deep in the Himalayas, Spiti Valley in Himachal Pradesh is a place one must visit at least once in his or her lifetime, offering the majestic views of the trans-Himalayas and humble hospitality & warmth of locals. The terrain and cultural values of Spiti Valley are quite a similar Leh - Ladakh and can surely leave you spellbound by its charismatic natural beauty. The road to Spiti Valley, Hindustan - Tibet Highway or NH-5 is called world's most treacherous road and one must have to experience it to believe it :)
Entire Spiti Valley falls under high altitude region and once must be properly acclimatized for making a successful trip and avoid acute mountain sickness. Hence, it is better to plan the trip from Kinnaur Valley side and exit from Manali side. Foreigners need Inner Line Permits to visit Inner Line Areas of Spiti Valley.
If you are interested in more details, you can refer my detailed itinerary/travel guide for Spiti Valley.

About #PhotoGuides
#PhotoGuides is a travel and photo series initiative by @devilonwheels & @goel.tarun. It is dedicated to introducing some of the amazing places on this earth to everyone on Steemit. Places that make you get out of your couch and wander in this beautiful world. It is a small attempt from my side to share my travel knowledge on Steemit and help promote some of the remotest yet most beautiful places I/we have visited in the Himalayas and elsewhere. I hope you love and plan your trips to these places in time to come. If you have any questions or doubts in planning such a trip, I will be happy to help you here.
Can I participate in #PhotoGuides?
If you know about such amazing places and wish to contribute in this series, I will request you to use this #PhotoGuides tag so that it helps all fellow Steemians to refer such wonderful places of this earth under one tag. Also, if possible, I will request you to share some quick facts about the place you are sharing in above format to keep the travel information simple and concise.
What do I get in return?
Well, I believe, as much as you love to share your travel knowledge and wonderful places you have visited with fellow Steemians, you may feel more motivated if there are some rewards in it, too (and we all do). As of today, we may not have enough Steem Power to hold a contest or reward you with some heavy upvotes for your contributions. However, I do ensure that we will look forward to your post as loyal readers under the #PhotoGuides tag and if it is worth enough, will upvote with whatever little worth of vote we have with my current and future Steem Power 😎😎
