Ancient Weighing machine for Balance wool in Tibetan Refugee Camps at Pokhara Annapurna Valley Nepal Following the Chinese invasion of Tibet there was an influx of over 300,000 exiles/refugees into Nepal on the way to Dharamala in India. It's estimated that 60,000 settled in Nepal. 2,500 refugees cross the border every year either to make there way to India or settle in Nepal. There are 12 official containment camps. 8 in Kathmandu, and 4 in Pokhara (Tashi Ling, Tashi Palkhiel, Jampaling and Paljorling). There are several more smaller settlements in the surrounding hillsides around Pokhara. Highlights around the settlement camps If you've spent any time in Pokhara then at some stage while walking along Lakeside your sure to have been approached by a wide smiling lady or man selling trinkets. This is most likely on of the Tibetan refugees. Many Tibetan refugees are not allowed to legally work, so selling handmade jewelry, trinkets, carvings and carpets is a form of income. Within the settlement camps you will often find much of the same. While during the day people are out tending to crops, there will be a few working and selling there.
