Share on:

Dhankar, a remote village in the Spiti Valley of northern India, is located at an altitude of 3,900 meters, perched on a steep cliff. This village, with a history of 1,000 years, combines natural beauty with human survival.

Dhankar offers a unique view with deep gorges and rivers fed by melting snow, while the sky seems closer than usual. The village looks like a movie set at the edge of the world.
