A wide selection of colorful handwoven Tibetan carpets are for sale in rug shops in Kathmandu, capital of Nepal in South Asia. Rug making has become a major industry in Nepal ever since refugees from Tibet began settling in that neighboring country in the 1960s. Nowadays the well-known Tibetan weavings often are called Nepalese rugs or carpets, and they are woven in contemporary and Persian designs as well as in traditional Tibetan motifs.
