A vibe. This place is more of a good vibe than a book store. The smell of books, incense, papers, old paintings, imagine being in a film and the place is exactly that. You can find books, truncates, art supplies, board games, vintage perfume bottles, beautiful stones boxes, gift cards, posts, and so so much. Not just just a book store you can even indulge in old paintings decorating their walls, the lovely smell of incense, and just holding some of their perfume boxes. Anyone can spend hours and hours searching and finding stuff, books, and small truncates to admire and still be able to find more and more. From modern art supplies to old historic books, like time just stopped and made its collections here. Not just the place but even the people and staff are so friendly and humble, you can even meet new people from an entirely different part of the world. You don't just find materials but friends too if you search.

Three floors - great variety (reminds me of some of the biggest bookstores in NY and BJ). Helpful staff. The book from the Vintage series though was one of the most blurrily printed books I’ve bought, uncomfortable to read, and even has small random marks that make it look like a photocopy (see pic). Doubted if it was an official edition (but given that it’s unlikely someone would make a fake copy of this unpopular writer…)… Most books were protected with a plastics cover, no sample available, so it was not possible to tell the quality of the pages inside, although I did not ask if I was allowed to open the package.

This is a popular book store smack in the middle of Thamel. There are three floors worth of books ranging from books on religion to mountaineering. There are also Nepali handicrafts, soaps, incense sticks, cosmetics, postcards, paintings etc that are on sale. If you have an hour or two and want to window shop, this would be the ideal place. I was pleasantly surprised that they had a big collection of Tinkle magazines, an Indian magazine that was very popular and representative of my childhood. Highly recommend this place.

Fabulous bookstore ! An absolute treasure trove of books of every genre but particularly those relating to the mountains/Tibet/Nepal as well as Buddhism and Hinduism. Prices are way lower compared to buying books printed in the US/UK. I bought a coffee table book on Tibetan motifs and a hardcover book set of English classics and saved a fortune I would have otherwise spent at home. They have a lovely selection of souvenirs too. A must visit if you’re in Kathmandu.

I've visited a LOT of bookstores in KTM and I think this might be the largest one with the best selection for English anyway. Heaps on spirituality, Nepal, self-development, etc. The staff are helpful and friendly. If you can't find a book, ask them to help you out! There's a second and third level too so don't miss out on those! They also have a bunch of random stuff, stationary, crystals, and so on Prices for the books are very reasonable as well! =)

5 star. When digital e books are ruling the world, places like pilgrims are just rare find or must i say heritage materials. From fiction to non fiction booms this place offers a readers paradise. When ever I m in Nepal, I visit this place and always find few rare books. Also when u look at the prices, its way reasonable than US Nd Europe. The only caution is please do check the quality of the print before buying. U get what u pay for.

Everytime I visit kathmandu nepal this is my go to book store, it is such a huge store with 3 levels with books in all genre, the price is decent the staff is knowledgeable, i go there 3 to 4 times a week when I am visiting, they also got souvenirs candles incense and health/ beauty products. I got tons of awesome book on yoga, which I Culebra find in other stores, a must go if you are a book lover

A best book shop I have ever found till date. The whole house is full of books. There are different sections and floor according to nature/ types of book. Such as Astrology, Science and technology, romantic, literature and so on. Their staff will help you find the book from the piles of books and alao suggest you novels if you are really fond of it. I definitely suggest anyone to visit here

This book store was out of my expectations . I went there thinking that it was a small book store but that was such a beautiful building full with books . There were many options available and different beautiful things were also there . If you found books amazing please visit there . You will feel like you are in heaven . I will go there soon

Bruhhhhh, this place is lit. Thanks to my friend sudeep and lizy for showing me up the place. Has a different vibe, whether you are a book lover or not, you will definitely feel good about visiting the place. A heaven for books and art lovers. You can get all the books and stationery materials with lots of fun games too. #highly_recommended

The choice of books here is absolutely astounding! You can find almost all the best sellers and rare gems in their collection. You can be lost in the bookshelves for hours. I absolutely loved roaming around the store. All the books are categorized properly, you can query at the desk too for what you're looking for. Staffs are friendly.

Use to be a great book store many years ago but became to commercialized unfortunately. I loved going here to find new books when I visited Nepal but it has to many gifts, products and other merchandise that is not really relevant in my opinion. Still a nice place to explore and buy a variety of merchandise.

Best place of readers. Discount offer is aslo going on. Every variety of books and other materials like nepali t-shirt, bags, home decor and many more can be found there. Best placenof readers and book lovers. Each and every books are taged with book option. affordable rates with variety of books..

Beautiful and peaceful place where you'd get gifts and souvenirs for your beloved.. it's an amazing tourist place giving a cliche good vibe ... This is the only place where I was able to find the sand watch thing ..I found the price relevant as well . It's definitely a must visit place …

I can spend hours here. You can find almost all kinds of books. 3 Floors of absolute heaven with friendly and helpful staffs. Highly recommended place for books both Kathmandu and Pokhara branch. This place isn't just for books but ethnic wears, souvenirs, stationery and art supplies.

I really like this place; it is my favorite place to buy books. They also sell Nepalese art and craft products. The non-chemical incense sticks I bought from them were amazing. I highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a unique book shop in Kathmandu.

What a place! My soul in heaven. I wish I had a more suitcases on the way back home, to buy up everything, what resonates with me But its not only about buying stuff. Really good vibes here. You can chill and read in a sofa. Must visit in Kathmandu, Thamel …

Wonderful experience. Bought some books and also other stuff. A little piece of heaven for everyone wanting to explore various genre of books. I bought 2 romance novels. Also bought some items like stickers, purses and so on which was pretty cool. Will visit again!

Extensive selection of books, gifts, maps, arts and crafts supplies, and more. Credit cards accepted. And you're free to browse at your leisure without pushy salespeople hassling you. I ended up doing most of my gift shopping here. Plus they sell postcard stamps!

Though I am not a book lover, it could be a paradise for a book lover. The place looks small from outside, but from the inside this is big and visitors could spend several hours looking for books. The prices of stationeries could be on a higher side.

Easily my favourite bookstore in Kathmandu. Never been to the of store that got razed by a fire but its rebirth continues to hold many wonders. A local tip is to skip the first floor and head further upstairs where all the good books are …

This is the most beautiful 3 storied book store I have ever been to. You can buy souvenirs, postcards, hand made cards, handicrafts and local Nepali specialities from here. The book collection is huge. You can go on browsing through the …

Walking through this store discovering old memorabilia and new merchandise. From books to cultural traditional trinket and clothing to stationery. It has everything which surprises me as I go exploring for hidden treasures.

Best book shop of Nepal you can find literature of any genre. And best think you can spend the whole day to visit this book shop. Three floored shop has so many corners you can spend hours looking the books. …

They have a huge collection of books, make sure to visit the two upper floors as well! The books are still in their plastics however, which makes it difficult to see if it’s a good fit for you (you cannot open them).

Гарний великий книжковий. "Все в одному", тут один з найбільших асортиментів книжок і карт. Ціни як на що. На карти в середньому нормальні. Книжки на мою думку дещо дорожче. Єдиний мінус, не дуже хочуть торгуватися.

Questa libreria presenta una superficie di esposizione di tre piani, ricchi di libri di ogni tipo e cultura. Oltre ad avere un angolo shopping di artigianato locale molto ricco e ben curato. Da visitare.

Excellent bookstore in the hart of the city. Was looking for a book by Haruki Murakami and the store clerk was able to find it for me. Friendly service and good selection of books in its several floors.

Magnificent place in KTM, excellent choice of philosophical, classic and contemporary fiction, Nepalese and India writings, plus tons of self help/awareness&healing etc. on three floors like B&N in NYC.

Peaceful and beautiful! Very nice and variety of option . The staff quiet serious but friendly. I recommend to go. I got two very nice books there is a nice collection of spiritual books as well …

Bookstore that gives more than a bookstore feeling. A wide range of books available. Serene and vintage vibes. Also you'll find a variety of items, souvenirs, handmade stuffs and many more here.

3 storeys full of books.. One of the oldest and most famous book shop in Thamel area In Kathmandu.... Can find almost any book you are looking for.... Can buy souvenirs and other gift items too

Coziest bookstore in town! Love the smell of books and incense here. And the cute stuff too. They have a huge collection of books to choose from and you wouldn't go back home disappointed.

HUGE choice of books, very cute book store. Both new, reduced price books, gifts, etc. Can spend hours in there getting inspiration & adding titles to booklist. Very nice staff as well.

Most extensive book store in Thamel with mostly local culture downstairs, children's books on 2nd floor, and variety of genres on 2nd and 3rd floors. Local souvenirs also available.

I loved all the handmade notebooks in the store. I bought three. Nice selection of books, some original art, good variety of gift items. We went back again on the same day!

I bought a book there for 25$, it was wrapped in plastic and when I opened it at the hotel I saw the pages are damaged very badly. Not a place I would recommend, scammers.

As always, Pilgrim's is a must visit for book lovers in the Kathmandu Valley. It's a charming space filled with an excellent selection of Nepali and international books.

A lovely bookshop in Thamel with a great range of popular titles as well as local fiction. There is also a lovely selection of gifts and stationary on the ground floor.

Iconic bookstore in Kathmandu, Nepal known for authentic heritage and travel literature, variety of products is amazing, the bookstore is also there at Varanasi India

This is a magical place. Imagine a bookshop from Harry Potter :) You can easily spend half day here digging for treasures. Must visit when in Kathmandu!

My fav book store in Katmandu when I’m in there I stay for hours You can find Uniqe gifts / cards .. One of the oldest and coolest bookstore in KTM

That’s the best book shop in Kathmandu and I believe in Nepal also. You can find here literally all kinds of books. I’ll definitely come back again

Good bookstore that has more than just books!! Great range of items. Although the items were quite a bit overpriced compared to other stores

The place where one gets completely lost in the world of book. One can find book of each genre here, with properly managed room compartment.

Such a nice store! If you’re a book lover, you can find a real treasure here. I spent a lot of time of this store and bought several books

Love this magical corner! You can find hidden treasure from the old age to the new. The staff are knowledgeable and helpful.

Amazing 3 storey book store. With collection from new to old books. Good collection of souvenirs and many other items.

An amazing labyrinth of books + other souvenir items. They have a huge collection of philosophy and spiritual books.

The one and only. This is the place to find books or to get lost The staff is extremely nice and professional.

Really loved the store. Could look and not be hassled like other stores. Had plenty of variety to choose from.

Best place to buy souvenir. Everything you want is here. Accept credit card payment without transaction fee

Amazing variety, quiet and pleasant, one of the nicer shops I’ve come across in the Thamel!

Such a wonderful peaceful island in the middle of a very busy city. A bit pricy though.

It had all sorts of artifacts books and whatnot. For me it was a bit pricey...

Big store spreading up-to 3 floors and has separate floors dedicated to kids.

Many books are available over here . This book store is actually fun to visit

Wow. Packed full of trinkets, books and all kinds of wonderful things

They have a large selection of books by various spiritual teachers

If you are an avid reader and sucker for good books, must visit.

トレッキング前に行く店。まず地図を買います。お土産も一通りあり、一般より高いと思いますが清潔で、値切らなくて済むので楽です。

Lovely place for English books and souvenirs. Good prices.

Loves of options. Probably the best bookstore in the area
