Tabo Monastery and Temple Complex - Spiti Valley: The Tabo Monastery is indeed located in the Spiti Valley of Himachal Pradesh, which matches the given pair correctly.
Lhotsava Lhakhang Temple, Nako - Zanskar Valley: This is not correct. While the Lhotsava Lhakhang is associated with the village of Nako, this village is located in the Kinnaur district of Himachal Pradesh, not in the Zanskar Valley of Jammu and Kashmir.
Alchi Temple Complex - Ladakh: The Alchi Temple Complex is correctly matched with Ladakh. It is situated in the Alchi village of the Leh District in the Ladakh region and is part of the Ladakh Autonomous Hill Development Council, on the Leh-Kargil Highway.
