International Mountain Day: World’s Highest Post Office In The Himalayas

Did you know that the world’s highest post office is in India in the Himalayas? It is the Hikkim Post Office, located in the Spiti Valley at the height of 4,400 metres, “where even mobile or internet fail to reach”.

This tiny post office, in a village called Hikkim, connects few villages located in a barren and tough terrain of Spiti valley. Local villagers post letters or deposit money at the Hikkim Post Office, which started running in 1983.
