Smartpart is a wrapper, it loads another control.

So both are similar, Right? But are smart parts are included within sharepoint like webparts? Are it belongs to some 3rd party component?

Not exactly a 3rd party component. Need to register the MS patterns and practices dll's, which has many built-in controls. using this you can create smartparts.

SmartPart can give user control access to the SharePoint object model and it is a generic webpart that can contain an ASP.NET user control.
Web part is some sort of fundamental building block in a SharePoint portal. In Sharepoint site Components like Calendar, Announcements, and Links are called Web Parts, specifically designed to provide personalized and customizable windows of information to users.

you can create a Web User Control (ASCX) with the Visual Studio Designer, that uses the ASP.NET AJAX extensions and run that user control as a SharePoint web part. At this point in time, it's still a beta version, you can get it from the GotDotNet workspace (releases section). How do you get started? First of all you need to download and install the ASP.NET AJAX Extensions. Next you need to extend your SharePoint site with these extensions, check Mike's post for detailed instructions. You only need to change the web.config, you don't need to add the ScriptManager to the master page! Now you can install the SmartPart.
Web Part is to be used for displaying the hierarchical location on a Windows SharePoint Services 2003 site collection. This breadcrumb trail will continue all the way down to the site that the user is currently on.
