Our Story

The Tibetan Refugee Market was born out of resilience and hope. Decades ago, Tibetan refugees who resettled in India sought ways to sustain their families and preserve their cultural identity. With creativity, skill, and determination, they transformed small stalls and handmade crafts into a thriving marketplace. Over time, the Tibetan Refugee Market became a symbol of self-reliance, offering livelihood to hundreds of families and introducing shoppers to the rich artistic heritage of Tibet.

The market represents more than commerce—it represents survival, adaptation, and the sharing of culture. Every purchase here directly supports Tibetan artisans, families, and communities, ensuring their traditions continue to flourish in a new land.
