The store, tucked away to the right of the entrance, sells traditional Tibetan clothing, paper, incense, mandalathangkas,yak-hide boots, dolls, door hangings, and more. Prices are more than fair, and you'll probably want to give more. The quality of work is astounding, and as nearly everything is made on-site, you can watch how it's done.
