A Glimpse Inside Tibetian History
The Tibet house is a must visit for those interested in Tibetian history,
an excellent resource centre about Tibet. The House has a collection of
artefacts brought from Tibet when the Dalai Lama fled from there.
There are rare 'Thangkhas' or painted scrolls from 15th century Tibetian
monasteries, an exquisite collection of Buddha figurines, old currency
notes, objects of prayer, musical instruments and antique jewellery. There
is a library with books on
Tibet, Tibetian history and culture. A shop is also located over here that
sells clothes, jewellery, medicines, incense, curios and Tibetian
handicrafts.
The House also conducts lecture sessions and discussions on a regular
basis that are very informative and those wanting to enjoy an intellectual
evening can attend these sessions.
