A Cultural Must-See.
Step into a realm where whispers of ancient mountains echo through handcrafted artifacts and timeworn manuscripts. The Lepcha Museum, nestled near the serene Kumudhni Homes School in Kalimpong, isn't just a collection; it's a living, breathing testament to the enduring spirit of the Lepcha people. Founded in 1985 by the visionary Padmashree- Late Sonam Tshering Lepcha, this sanctuary preserves the soul of Lepcha culture, defying the shadows of time with every meticulously displayed rare collection of the material culture of the Lepcha manuscripts (Namthar), every resonant musical instrument, and every intricately crafted utensil.
