Its claim to fame is the Hikkim Post Office, a working India Post branch that the local signboard proudly calls the world&#8217;s highest post office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Travellers come for one simple, memorable thing: to write a postcard and mail it home from a place perched well above 4,400 metres. It is a genuine excursion, not a theme park, so a little planning helps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One honest note up front. The &#8220;world&#8217;s highest&#8221; wording needs care, and the post office keeps government-office hours and can shut in deep winter. Check the season and rough timings before you make a special trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quick Answer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hikkim Post Office is a working India Post branch in Hikkim village, <a href=\"https:\/\/himtrails.in\/hi\/destination\/spiti\/\" data-type=\"destination\" data-id=\"12922\">\u0938\u094d\u092a\u0940\u0924\u093f \u0935\u0948\u0932\u0940<\/a>, about 14 to 16 km uphill from Kaza. It is famous as one of the world&#8217;s highest post offices, and visitors can normally buy a postcard and mail it home. Allow about 30 to 45 minutes here. It sits above 4,400 m, so acclimatise first and check that the post office is open before you visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<section id=\"htdlw-widget-1-6245\" class=\"htdlw-widget\" data-htdlw-widget data-htdlw-runtime=\"2.3.4\" data-destination=\"Hikkim Village &amp;

Local people use it to send and receive mail and, historically, for small savings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is not a monument or a museum. It is a real government office where villagers get everyday postal work done, often run from a traditional Spitian house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What makes it special for visitors is the altitude and the setting. Writing a postcard here, then handing it across a counter well above 4,400 metres, is a quiet thrill that a courier app can never match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because it is a working office, treat it as one. Let local customers go first, keep your visit short if staff are busy, and don&#8217;t turn the counter into a photo set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Hikkim the World&#8217;s Highest Post Office?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the question everyone asks, and the honest answer needs a little nuance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The India Post board outside the branch describes it as the world&#8217;s highest post office. For years that was the widely accepted title, and Hikkim is very reliably <strong>India&#8217;s highest post office<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hikkim Post Office altitude and the record<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Altitude figures vary by source, from around 4,400 m to 4,724 m (roughly 14,400 to 15,500 ft). The board itself is commonly cited at 4,440 m (14,567 ft). Treat any single figure with caution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The complication is Everest Base Camp. A China Post office at Qomolangma (Everest Base Camp) in Tibet, at around 5,200 m, has been recognised by Guinness World Records as the highest-altitude post office, which is higher than Hikkim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So the fair way to put it: Hikkim is India&#8217;s highest post office and one of the world&#8217;s highest <strong>permanently functioning<\/strong> post offices. The strict &#8220;world&#8217;s highest&#8221; crown is disputed, with a higher facility now recognised at Everest Base Camp. None of that takes away from the experience of posting a card here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hikkim Post Office Timings and Services<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Treat Hikkim like any small government branch office, then plan for remoteness on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Opening hours<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Confirm before visiting. Small rural branches usually open for a limited window on working days, and a remote branch may keep shorter or irregular hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Weekly closure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Confirm before visiting. Expect a weekly off and public-holiday closures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Public-holiday closure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Likely on national and state holidays; confirm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Seasonal limitations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Heavy winter snow can disrupt access, staffing and dispatch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can visitors enter?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Generally yes, as a member of the public doing postal work, but respect that it is a small working space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On services, domestic letter and postcard handling is the core function most travellers use. Do not assume registered post, Speed Post, parcels, international counters or banking services are all available on demand at such a small remote branch. Availability of any service can depend on staff, supplies, connectivity and transport on the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Send a Postcard from Hikkim<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is a simple, realistic process. Availability of cards and stamps is never guaranteed, so plan a little.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Carry or buy a postcard.<\/strong> Bring your own as a safe backup. Some travellers even print their own Spiti photos as cards. If the branch has cards or souvenir cards in stock, you can buy there.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Write the recipient&#8217;s full address<\/strong> clearly, in block capitals where you can.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add the correct PIN code<\/strong> for Indian addresses, or the full postal code and country for international mail.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add a return address<\/strong>, so the card can come back if it cannot be delivered.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ask the counter for the correct postage<\/strong> for your destination and card type. Do not guess.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Buy and attach the stamp<\/strong> they advise.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ask whether any Hikkim postal cancellation is available<\/strong>, and only expect it if the staff confirm it. Do not assume a special commemorative postmark.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Post the card<\/strong> at the designated counter or box.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Keep expectations realistic<\/strong> about delivery time.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A quick warning: unclear handwriting, incomplete addresses, insufficient postage, weather and transport disruption can all delay a card. Remote dispatch means patience is part of the charm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hikkim Postcard, Stamp and Postal Charges<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few things to separate clearly, because travellers often mix them up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The postcard itself<\/strong> (buying a plain or souvenir card) is a purchase price, and stock is not guaranteed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The postage<\/strong> (the stamp) is a separate charge set by India Post, and it differs for domestic versus international mail.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Registered or tracked options<\/strong>, if available at all here, cost more and are separate again.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">India Post keeps ordinary domestic postage very low, and international postcard postage is higher and varies by destination. Because exact figures could not be verified for today and small denominations do change, we are not printing a rate table. Ask at the counter, and check the India Post postage information at<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiapost.gov.in\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> indiapost.gov.in<\/a> before you travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Payment here is best assumed to be <strong>cash<\/strong>, in small notes. Do not rely on card machines or UPI in a remote branch with patchy connectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Long Does Mail from Hikkim Take?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Set gentle expectations. There is no guaranteed delivery date for ordinary mail from a remote branch like this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Domestic mail may take noticeably longer than city-to-city post because collection and onward transport from Hikkim depend on the road and the weather. International mail can vary widely and is harder to predict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ordinary post also carries no tracking, so you cannot follow it. If timing truly matters, ask whether a tracked service is available, and understand it still faces the same remote-dispatch and seasonal delays. We cannot promise your card will arrive within any set period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Hikkim Village?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hikkim is a small farming village in the cold high desert of Spiti, sharing its bowl-like setting with neighbours Langza and Komic. It sits alongside these villages on the popular high-altitude circuit above Kaza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Homes here are built low and sturdy from stone, mud and wood, painted white, with prayer flags marking a strongly Buddhist community. Fields around the houses are worked in the short growing season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Life is pastoral and seasonal, shaped by altitude, cold and isolation for much of the year. The post office is part of this fabric, not separate from it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please treat Hikkim as a living community, not a photo stop. People actually live, farm and work here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">History and Significance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hikkim Post Office is widely reported to have opened in <strong>November 1983<\/strong>, and for many years it was famously run by a long-serving local postmaster from his own traditional home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For remote Spiti villages, a post office was a real lifeline, carrying letters, documents and small savings to and from the outside world long before mobile phones reached the valley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is really the heart of the story: a tiny branch keeping isolated communities connected across some of the highest inhabited terrain in India. Tourism and postcards came later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Architecture and Village Landscape<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Expect traditional Spitian homes of whitewashed stone and mud, clustered below the road with open fields around them. Prayer flags and a village monastery add to the setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lanes are narrow, uneven and often dusty or muddy, and the surrounding mountain views are wide and stark. Light is especially good in the clear mornings and late afternoons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enjoy all of this from public paths. Do not assume access to private courtyards, rooftops, fields or religious interiors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Visit Hikkim?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The honest appeal is specific and small-scale, and that is the point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You come to send a postcard from one of the highest post offices on Earth, to see how postal life works in a remote Himalayan community, and to spend time in a quiet traditional village. It pairs naturally with nearby Langza and Komic as a short circuit from Kaza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For photographers and postal-history enthusiasts especially, it is a memorable stop. Just don&#8217;t count on the post office being open the moment you arrive, so build in flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best Time to Visit Hikkim<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Main access season:<\/strong> Summer to early autumn is the reliable window, when the road is usually open.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Best time of day:<\/strong> Late morning to early afternoon, which fits typical office hours and gives you time to drive back safely.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Weekday vs weekend:<\/strong> Weekdays are safer for finding the branch working; expect closures on the weekly off and holidays.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Spring, summer, autumn:<\/strong> Generally the practical visiting months, with clear light and workable roads.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Winter:<\/strong> Extreme cold, snow and possible road closures.

(Some older sources quote longer distances via an old track; the common route today runs with the Langza\u2013Komic diversion.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Route:<\/strong> Most travellers combine Hikkim with Langza and Komic in one loop from Kaza.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Taxi:<\/strong> A local taxi from Kaza is the easiest option and can cover the whole circuit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Private car:<\/strong> Fine in good conditions with a capable vehicle and a driver used to hill roads.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Motorcycle:<\/strong> Popular in summer with experienced riders.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Shared\/local transport:<\/strong> Limited seasonal bus services have historically run on certain days, but confirm locally before relying on them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Road condition:<\/strong> Narrow, high and rough in places; conditions change with weather.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Winter:<\/strong> Snow and ice can block or seriously slow the road. Do not assume winter access.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Parking:<\/strong> Informal roadside stopping only, with a short walk to the post office.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Return journey:<\/strong> Plan to be heading back to Kaza with daylight to spare.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For reaching Spiti itself from Delhi, Chandigarh or Manali, see the Spiti Valley destination guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Parking and Walking in Hikkim<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vehicles usually stop on the road near the village; there is no formal car park. From the stopping point, it is a short walk on uneven ground to the post office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Village lanes are narrow, sloping in places, and can be dusty, muddy, or snowy and icy depending on season. Take it slowly at altitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is manageable for many older children and for fit seniors who pace themselves, but it is <strong>not<\/strong> suitable for wheelchair users and is awkward for anyone with limited mobility. Keep clear of homes, fields and local traffic as you walk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Altitude, Acclimatisation and Health<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hikkim sits above 4,400 m, where the air holds noticeably less oxygen, weather changes fast, and wind and cold bite hard even in summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Acclimatise first.<\/strong> Spend a night lower in Spiti before coming up. Don&#8217;t rush here on your arrival day in the mountains.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Go gently.<\/strong> Hydrate, rest, and avoid overexertion on the walk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Children and seniors<\/strong> can visit with slow pacing, but very young children are better kept lower.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pregnant travellers and anyone with heart, lung or altitude-related conditions<\/strong> should take extra care and consider medical advice before high-altitude travel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Carry personal medication<\/strong>, and know your own limits.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Watch for warning signs<\/strong> such as a bad headache, breathlessness at rest, dizziness, nausea or confusion. If these appear or worsen, descend and seek medical help.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are not able to give personalised medical advice, and a short visit is not risk-free.

Postal service can be disrupted, homestays and food are limited, water lines can freeze, and heating, electricity and connectivity may all be patchy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Medical support and evacuation are limited.

It works as a short stop or a relaxed half-day, depending on how much you want to linger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Postcard senders, photographers and culture-focused travellers usually prioritise it; families with very young children or travellers who tire quickly at altitude may prefer a shorter visit. It pairs naturally with Langza and Komic, and sits comfortably alongside a separate Key Monastery outing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HimTrails can help with transport, timing and routing so your high-village day is paced sensibly for altitude. Because branch timings and road conditions change, we&#8217;ll suggest you reconfirm them close to your travel date, and if you want to post mail, carry a couple of postcards and a pen just in case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<!-- FAQ Accordion Styles -->\n<style>\n  .ht-faq-wrap {\n    font-family: 'Georgia', 'Times New Roman', serif;\n    max-width: 820px;\n    margin: 48px auto;\n    padding: 0 16px;\n    background: #ffffff;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-header {\n    text-align: center;\n    margin-bottom: 36px;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-header h2 {\n    font-size: clamp(22px, 4vw, 30px);\n    color: #1e2d1f;\n    font-weight: 700;\n    margin: 0 0 8px;\n    line-height: 1.25;\n    letter-spacing: -0.02em;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-item {\n    border-bottom: 1px solid #dce8dc;\n    background: #ffffff;\n    transition: background 0.2s;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-item:first-of-type {\n    border-top: 1px solid #dce8dc;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-item.ht-open {\n    background: #ffffff;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-btn {\n    width: 100%;\n    background: none;\n    border: none;\n    cursor: pointer;\n    padding: 20px 0;\n    display: flex;\n    align-items: center;\n    justify-content: space-between;\n    gap: 16px;\n    text-align: left;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-btn:focus-visible {\n    outline: 2px solid #4a7c59;\n    outline-offset: 2px;\n    border-radius: 3px;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-q-inner {\n    display: flex;\n    align-items: flex-start;\n    gap: 14px;\n    flex: 1;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-q-text {\n    font-size: 16px;\n    font-weight: 600;\n    color: #1e2d1f;\n    line-height: 1.45;\n    font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;\n    margin: 0;\n    padding: 0;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-item.ht-open .ht-faq-q-text {\n    color: #2e5e3a;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-icon {\n    width: 28px;\n    height: 28px;\n    border-radius: 50%;\n    border: 1.5px solid #b8d4b9;\n    display: flex;\n    align-items: center;\n    justify-content: center;\n    flex-shrink: 0;\n    transition: background 0.25s, border-color 0.25s;\n    color: #4a7c59;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-item.ht-open .ht-faq-icon {\n    background: #2e5e3a;\n    border-color: #2e5e3a;\n    color: #fff;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-icon svg {\n    width: 12px;\n    height: 12px;\n    transition: transform 0.3s cubic-bezier(0.34, 1.56, 0.64, 1);\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-item.ht-open .ht-faq-icon svg {\n    transform: rotate(45deg);\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-panel {\n    overflow: hidden;\n    max-height: 0;\n    transition: max-height 0.38s cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1);\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-item.ht-open .ht-faq-panel {\n    max-height: 1000px;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-answer {\n    padding: 0 0 24px 36px;\n    font-size: 15px;\n    line-height: 1.75;\n    color: #3d4f3e;\n    font-family: 'Georgia', serif;\n  }\n\n  .ht-faq-answer strong {\n    color: #2e5e3a;\n    font-weight: 600;\n  }\n\n  @media (max-width: 600px) {\n    .ht-faq-q-text { font-size: 14px; }\n    .ht-faq-answer { padding-left: 0; font-size: 14px; }\n  }\n<\/style>\n\n<!-- FAQ Accordion HTML -->\n<div class=\"ht-faq-wrap\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/FAQPage\">\n\n  <div class=\"ht-faq-header\">\n    <h2>\u0905\u0915\u094d\u0938\u0930 \u092a\u0942\u091b\u0947 \u091c\u093e\u0928\u0947 \u0935\u093e\u0932\u0947 \u092a\u094d\u0930\u0936\u094d\u0928<\/h2>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <!-- Q1 -->\n  <div class=\"ht-faq-item\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\">\n    <button class=\"ht-faq-btn\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n      <span class=\"ht-faq-q-inner\">\n        <h3 class=\"ht-faq-q-text\" itemprop=\"name\">Where is Hikkim Post Office?<\/h3>\n      <\/span>\n      <span class=\"ht-faq-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n        <svg viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\" fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\">\n          <line x1=\"6\" y1=\"1\" x2=\"6\" y2=\"11\"><\/line><line x1=\"1\" y1=\"6\" x2=\"11\" y2=\"6\"><\/line>\n        <\/svg>\n      <\/span>\n    <\/button>\n    <div class=\"ht-faq-panel\" role=\"region\">\n      <div class=\"ht-faq-answer\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\">\n        <span itemprop=\"text\">Hikkim Post Office is in Hikkim village in Spiti Valley, Lahaul and Spiti district, Himachal Pradesh.
