Souvenirs and handcraft Bhutan
© Copyright
Craftwork is extremely rich, although expensive, and rare. However, if you would like to make some investments for your interior decoration, this is the right time to make them. The delicacy of Bhutanese production is demonstrated in its fabrics of cotton, wool and wild silk. You can bring back thangkas, for example, which are painted religious banners, or belts. The usual items (baskets, bowls...) which are made out of bambu or cane are less expensive and can be bought in the markets, as opposed to fabrics and jewels which you will only find in the shops of Thimphu. The shops in Thimphu are closed on Tuesdays and open the rest of the week from 7:00am to 6:00 pm.
