Lepcha Museum

A small but rich museum about the Lepcha community culture and history. We were shown around and explained everything by Mr Korbong Lepcha, the son of Padma Shri Sonam Lepcha who had set up the museum. He had great knowledge and passion for preserving and promoting Lepcha culture.

I and my wife we visited this beautiful museaum last week we had an amazing experience at the lepcha museum it was an amazing insight to thwir beautiful culture way of living and history,
Lepchas are an indigenous tribe and original inhabitants of darjelling and kalimpong later sidelined by colonial powers
Very very interesting people its a must see
I would like to add a special note the grand legacy of sonam lepcha padma vibushan and padma shree the father of this museum the man who dedicated his entire life collecting artifacts, and iteams and lepcha art his proud legacy is being carried by his equally capable son
I wish him the very best of luck
Love from udaipur and we will come again :)

Its a very peaceful place with good people around and a friendly enviroment

It's an unique museum of the Lepcha clan. Lepchas are the Indigenous inhabitants of present Darjeeling, Kalimpong, Sikkim, Southern Bhutan and Eastern Nepal. The museum is founded by late Shri Sonam Tshering lepcha. This is the only lepcha museum in the world.

A tiny Buddhist monastery in a very calm and clean environment... Though it is hard to find, once you reach there it welcomes you with a relaxing ambience.

This place was run by a man how has won an Padma Bhushan for lepcha culture and now his son runs the place
