Nepal is a good place for shopping antique arts and crafts and antique Nepal’s Jewelry. Kathmandu a capital city in particular has an excellent array and variety of shops offering almost everything from traditional Nepalese arts and crafts, Nepal’s jewelry, handmade clothes, pashminas, pottery, and antiques. However, please note that if you are buying antiques or very old Nepal’s jewelry, you need to get special permission from the Department of Archaeology to take the antiques out of the country. Customs in Nepal are extremely thorough when it comes to inspecting the baggage of those leaving the country.  For this reason, it is essential that you get receipts for any items when shopping which appear to be antique. Ensure not to buy anything when you are shopping which looks as though it is a black market antiquity or old Nepal’s jewelry as this could put you in a very difficult position if you are caught with the item in your baggage.
