Ans. In comparison to Ladakh, Spiti Valley is small, but it bundles lakes, monasteries, wildlife, and spirituality in an immersive experience. In contrast, Ladakh is vast, and the villages are far apart. It is easy to interact with people in Spiti Valley. Due to the distant location of Ladakh villages, it is a little bit difficult to gain knowledge about their cultural way of life. But from the tourism point of view, both these destinations offer numerous attractions and have charm of their own.
