How an Ocean turned into a cold desert ? 😳

Welcome to Spiti Valley, one of the most surreal and fascinating landscapes in the Indian Himalayas. In this journey, I explore the breathtaking beauty of Key Monastery, the dramatic setting of Dhankar Monastery, the fossil-rich village of Langza, and the stunning badlands that make Spiti look like another planet. What makes Spiti truly unique is its incredible geological history. Millions of years ago, this cold desert was part of an ancient ocean known as the Tethys Sea. As the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates collided, the Himalayas rose from the seabed, transforming this region into the high-altitude desert we see today. Even now, marine fossils can be found in villages like Langza, offering evidence of Spiti’s underwater past. . #spitivalley #storyofhimalayas . . Cleartrip exclusive coupon code: CTJOURNEY.
