The Spiti Valley is a remote area high in the Himalayas situated on the Tibetan plateau with almost no rain and snow-covered for 8 months a year.
Although originally Tibetan, it's been part of India since the mid 19th century and virtually closed off from the World for most of the last 50 years.

Jeet in Spiti says the barley harvest has been great this year. The weather is lovely blue sky - bright sunshine. The work is now over and its party time, weddings, birthdays, and a time for celebration before the winter sets in.
