My second visit to this very interesting small museum. Great for a quick visit or a long linger. I think they also run programs as well but you'd have to check the website. I brought a small youth group there unannounced and they were very welcoming and invited us roam around and enjoy the artifacts. The youth were allowed to open and look through a beautiful book of Tibetan murals signed by the Dalai Lama! Full of fascinating pieces with a little temple in the back. Some pieces were hundreds of years old, parchment, figurines, items found in the temples, etc.

Nice

Visiting from Australia, as a student at Buddha House FPMT. Tibet House is a serene, inspiring sanctuary celebrating Tibetan culture and Buddhadharma right in the hustle and bustle of NYC. With a comprehensive library, well-stocked shopped and connection with many invigorating teachers, it's a definite recommendation for anyone interested in Tibetan Buddhism.

Good!!!

An urban mecca for Tibetan Buddhism that both Buddhists and non-Buddhists can appreciate. The best way to experience Tibet House is to attend one of the center's special events. I attended the opening ceremony of The Maitreya Project's Heart Shrine Relic Tour and found it to be phenomenal. For the Tibetan enthusiast, the library is home to over 1,000 books on Tibetan culture and history, including books and audio cassette tapes on the Tibetan language.

Beautiful Tibetan cultural center in the heart of NYC downtown. There is a lovely small gift shop, an in-depth library of Himalayan-related themes and topics, an intimate shrine room, and a gallery-events space that is bright and accommodating. I always love visiting for art openings, meditations, lectures, or performances. Do check their schedule for opening hours, and sign up as a member to experience all their exquisite offerings.

The US hub of Tibetan culture preservation with regular Buddhist instruction, artifacts and fine art, exhibition space, and cultural events. Directly affiliated with His Holiness, the Dali Lama, and founded and sponsored by luminaries of American culture. Also affiliated with the Tibet House in New Delhi, India.

I was visiting this location as research for a project. The space is open and free to public visits. Quiet gallery space with a small meditation room for prayer/worship. They have an incredible library which I could have spent hours investigating. Donations are recommended ($5). Overall, would recommend to anyone interested in learning about Tibet and Buddism.
