View:
Contains the layout page.
Before any view is rendered, viewstart page is rendered.
It is not lightweight as compare to Partial View.
View might have markup tag like html, head, title, body etc.
Partial View:
It does not contain layout page.
We can pass regular view to the render partial method.
It is designed specially to render within the view and just because of that it does not consist any mark up.
It is lightweight compared to View.
It can be embedded inside another view.

View can basically contains a complete markup which may contain a master view(or master page) with all the design(s) etc. whereas Partial view is only a portion of page or a small markup which don't have master page. It is basically used as user control in mvc and it can be used at more than one views.
