Dechen Collections - The best Hindu / Tibetan store in the Triangle
Saturday, July 09, 2005
Dechen Collections is located in the heart of Raleigh’s City Market. If you are looking for anything to do with Tibet, from prayer flags to bumper stickers, to books, to outfits, this is the place to go. They also have a number of Hindu & Buddhist items, plus a good selection of incense and singing bowls. Their selection is eclectic and their clientele is too. Their prices are quite reasonable given how small and specialized the store is. A great time to go is during First Friday, held the first Friday of every month where all the shops and galleries in City Market are open til 9pm. Parking can be difficult as it is all on-street with 1-2 hour limits during the day so be prepared to spend some time looking.
