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.

Wonderful energy. Don't be fooled that it's an apartment building, just go to the door and ring the bell. Take elevator to top floor for temperature check. Lovely little gift shop. Exhibits change. There is also a lending library. Beautiful space.

Amazing collection. Nice little gift shop. Staff is wonderful. Went for the Saraswati 's Gifts exhibition, which was spectacular. Don't miss this place!

Professor Bob Thurman's creativity, insight, and love for the Tibetan people and culture is in full display in this spiritual haven.

Beautiful display of tibetan culture and art. You can feel the peaceful energy of this place. Feel free to make a donation but otherwise there is no cost. This place inspires me to someday travel to tibet to learn more about their culture and history and get a glimpse of a Tibetan monk's life. Such a wonderful way to spend some time in the middle of the city.

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.

Absolutely rude. Couldn’t even get into the building because the doors were stuck and instead of the staff coming to assist, they simply hung up and told me the doors were open, attitude and all. Felt like I would break the door if I pulled any harder. I am not a weak person. They lost a donor today. Could tell they looked at the camera and decided I wasn’t worth their time — in true anti-Black fashion. You should be disgusted with yourselves for being in a sacred space and carrying that type of prejudice.

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.

Came for a guided lunchtime meditation session, made to feel very welcome. Nice artwork around the room which I viewed after the session.

I felt so much at peace and belonged when I visited Tibet House for a free gallery Exhibition. Welcomed by such a great staff who walked us thoroughly. All the ancient art displayed were beautiful, rare and well preserved. A perfect place to explore more about Tibet.

Hi, I visited when I went to New York for the first time since the march against the Vietnam War is the sixties! Tibet House is a wonderful place. I spent a long time in the little art museum and nobody bothered me when I pulled a ladder over and climbed up it to get a better look at the Gelukpa lineage tree tanka hung high up on the wall. Too high for a shorty like me! LOL! I was also able to attend a lecture on Bodhicitta by one of my sister nuns from my home monastery in Nepal. This last week for my birthday I was able to raise almost 300 dollars for them! Its important to keep Tibet House open in this difficult time. NYC is so impossibly expensive, as we all know. Its worth a visit and our support.

Great place if you like Tibetan art. Great library.

I thought this was some sort of gambling. My friend told me this was a “to bet” house so I had my money ready to make some money. Boy was my face red

Would like to express my gratitude here for having such a wonderful space for artworks and repatriation collection for public viewing. They even have a library for those who want to read or borrow books. Artworks are beautiful, with vibrant colors to boost. Entrance is free, however a donation is appreciated. A small but cosy place to explore.
