Everyone is adapting new ways of communication but this place stil holds it legacy of postcards. Not that ordinary post cards but the fancy ones defining famous points in SPITI VALLEY and near by areas. This place has some good vibes that one can cherish memories. I recommend you guys to visit this place as must if you are lover of old and classic culture.
Hikkim is a small village that boasts of the highest post office. One thing I would say to all my traveller friends is please carry stamps, postcards along or you can take from Kaza. The post office usually runs out of postcards and stamps. There is nothing extra ordinary as compared to other Spitian villages, but that feeling that its the highest post office and your family and friends will love to receive a postcard from there is exciting. So do visit and if the post master agrees maybe you can have a pic clicked, however he is a shy man and I guess gets tired from everyone asking for a pic with him.
Hikkim's Small Cluster of Houses Hides What Is Locally Claimed To Be The Post Office At The World's Highest Altitude of 4440 meters above sea level! But That Doesn't Stop Gaggles of Tourists Traipsing Down Dusty Paths Between The Village Houses To Get Them Hand Stamped Here!
You can buy postcards and stamps from the little café across the yard and get them hand stamped here!
This Post Office Is Open From 10 Am to 4 Pm Monday to Saturday!
Hikkim is a village in Lahaul and Spiti district in the northern Indian state of Himachal Pradesh at an elevation of 4,400 m (14,400 ft). It is 46 km (29 mi) from Kaza, the nearest town connected by road. It is one of the highest year-round inhabited locations in India, with residences from 4330 to 4400 m. Tangyud Monastery in adjacent Komic village 2 km to the southeast has residences up to 4520 m, and Korzok Monastery in adjacent Korzok village on Tso Moriri has year-round residences up to 4570 m.Most of the population is Buddhist. People use stones and wood extensively to build houses and structures.
One the best place in spiti circuit in himanchal Pradesh. Must visit place where you can send a postcard to dear ones. Sometimes we may find short of best designed post card. Try visiting there in winter where you can confront the cold temperatures. This will be opened till 4 in weekdays. Not sure about Saturdays
