Vajra Books

other

Vajra Books stands out for its shelves crammed with scholarly texts on Himalayan studies, Tibetan Buddhism, and local anthropology. It functions as a publishing house as much as a bookstore, founded by a group of academics and writers who wanted to keep specialized research accessible in Kathmandu. During the nineteen nineties, they began printing hard-to-find manuscripts and journals. Scholars from around the world visit these aisles to find rare, meticulously edited volumes that simply do not exist in mainstream retail bookstores anywhere else.
