One can find the tourist places overpriced for shopping. Unless a place serves something exceptional, it is not a good idea to buy loads of stuff. Dalhousie is no exception, except for Bhuttico shop, which is one of its kind.
Shopping at Bhuttico
Bhuttico was established in 1944 by local women of the area to sell handmade Kullu Shawls. Now that they have expanded, you can find here a variety of shawls made from lambswool, angora, pashmina, etc. These are made manually and are definitely a utility art worth bringing home. Bhuttico is located in the Garam Sadak area and is a highly recommended place to visit in Dalhousie. You can read the detailed information about this shop here.
