I have introduced many shops selling Tibetan gifts, and now I enlarge the extant to the whole Himalaya area, including  Nepal, Pakistan, India, Tibet, and even Russia.

Locatec in the Drum Tower, BaZha Tribe carries a wide variety of daily products from the above palces. Ms. Ma, the owner, was an experienced tourism editor. She introduced me a collection of Pakistani products: peach-wood fruit tray, boat-shape stoup with complex floral design, and candleholder that looks like a grape vine. Prices range from RMB 250 to RMB 1500.

Personally, I like the Nepalese woolen scarves and shawls. Handmade in a small town near Nepal's capital Katmandu, they are colorful, soft, and decorated with intricate motifs. Each sells around RMB 300. They are also the best seller in BaZha Tribe.

Products from Tibet include necklaces, rings, bracelets, prayer wheels, and Tangkas. Prices vary a lot, from RMB 30 to RMB 2000.

Ms. Ma speaks fluent English and French, and often travels to Himalaya region.
