Komic Village

Komic is one of the world's highest inhabited villages with a motorable road, dramatically perched at 4,587 metres in the arid landscape of Spiti Valley, Himachal Pradesh. The 500-year-old Tangyud Monastery at the heart of the village is a living centre of Tibetan Buddhist tradition. The near-total absence of light pollution makes Komic one of India's premier stargazing destinations, with the Milky Way visible in extraordinary clarity on clear nights. Komic Village Spiti offers a rare and humbling glimpse into life in one of the world's most extreme high-altitude environments.
