Great place, great souvenirs! Mary and Martha is always a favorite place to pick up high quality gifts for friends and family. Friendly and helpful staff.. Be sure to chat with the owners, Bill and Irene, if you get a chance, great people!
I live in UB and have always loved my visits to this shop. Knowing that my purchases are handmade and ethical (the shop is free trade) is a good feeling. They are consistently getting different products in the store so the merchandise never feels old. It's a great place to shop for souvenirs, and the staff and management give excellent customer service.
Went shopping for souvenirs. Loved the ethical sourcing. Great selection. Ended up going back for more after seeing the options at other retailers. Prices were inline with elsewhere or better. Several of the staff spoke English. No issues using a North American credit card. Highly recommend stopping in.
Always changing range of Souvenirs traditioally and fairtrade made within mongolia.
The shop has a little binder that details where all the products are made around Mongolia and the people that make them. This is the place to go for ethical and quaint souvenirs made in Mongolia where people are paid fair prices. Give back to the country you visited and put your privilege and wealth to a good cause.
Love the fact that the business help women in need in Mongolia. Things sold are handmade by those woman and it's pretty and unique. Bought some brooch and a pair of socks from them, pretty good deal!
Good place for buying trustworthy products. Little bit more expensive, but friendly english speaking staff.
Simply the best place in UB to buy authentic Mongolian souvenirs that are fairly traded and of excellent quality.
Great for gifts at all price ranges! Beautiful products great selection all very good value South the added benefit that it is ethically sourced and contributes to positive community projects.
Fair trade shop with good quality items and surprisingly affordable prices. The best place to buy gifts and souvenirs in town.
Wonderful and friendly staff. Ethically sourced and fairly traded items. Great way to spend an hour. Absolutely wonderful.
in reality each purchase in Mongolia is a fair trade as majority of production is through local people.
Wife and I really enjoyed this shop. Great stuff, reasonably priced with a good "back story" of responsible trade. We picked up several nice felt and cotton items here. Highly recommend.
Great place to buy both inexpensive and quality souvenir s
Vast variety of traditional products. If you're only a couple of days in UB, this is a must visit.
Great place for souvenirs! All fair trade but still good prices and there are lots of small gifts that are easy to take home in your suitcase.
People who works here, they're really nice. And the it's totally handcraft!
Great selection of handmade items including socks, handbags, scarves, sweaters, pillow covers, and lots of other things. Staff members are very helpful and speak excellent English. Their hours are 10:30-6, at least in the winter.
Essentially what Judy said. Fair trade, surprisingly large area, prices are good as is the quality. Peruse the mass produced stuff on the sixth floor of the State Dept Store, but don't buy until you check out Mary & Martha.
