I am so in love with this shop. The owner is a kind hearted gentleman, I've had great chats with him while shopping. When you shop here set aside a good hour or so, there are so many items to look at. It's a warm inviting environment inside. If you have that one friend who is a hard one to shop for, shop here there is something for everyone!
It was my daughter's fourth birthday, and grandma and grandpa sent some money for her to spend, I didn't think twice about taking her here, it was so much fun!

My partner and I came in yesterday and the man who owns the shop is so nice! He was so welcoming and informative. He really taught us a lot about incense and how they make it in Nepal as well as other things about the country. He seems like he really values the culture and does his best to teach his customers about it. A great place to visit, highly recommended.

Always an excellent experience visiting Manana Imports. My family lives in Calgary and I always stop by during my visits.

The owner (and his family) are such cool people, and he is the one who convinced me to take my life-changing trip to Nepal five years ago!

This store is stocked with handcrafted and high-quality goods from around the world. It is very reasonably priced, and I always stock up on little gifts for my friends when I am in town (they have items for all occasions).

I am a huge fan of the unique jewelry selection (and I bought my favorite slippers and belt here a couple years ago).

Come check out this store and support artists and craftsman from across the globe!

One of the most well put together and unique shops in the entire city. Knowledgeable staff make it feel like a trip into another place without leaving Calgary. Many one of a kind items!

Easily my favorite shop of all time. Most of my wardrobe is from here and I am absolutely obsessed with everything you have to sell here.

Incredible incense collection which the owner may give you samples from so that you can try the incense at home then come back and buy some! Interesting clothing from far away places, percussion instruments and lovely jewelry and gifts. Cards, crystal and sterling silver earrings that are so beautiful and we'll chosen by the buyer who also runs the store. If you ask him he will tell you stories about where the things come from in his store! He is nice and very polite. Truly Calgarian! Highly recommended. For a change of pace to develop in one's life visit here often and buy, buy, buy!

Everytime I have come in the owner is always kind and welcoming, the store is packed full of stock of a huge variety of items lots of sterling silver jewelry, bags, clothing, and other items. The owner is always eager to help and answer any questions you may have and has extensive knowledge on the products they sell. Not only do I love everything I have bought from here but I feel good about everything I have bought from here.
The last purchase I made was two Zuni sterling silver bear paw rings for me and my mother, i originally came in for two pendant charms of these but the owner showed me the rings instead and we absolutely love them! Thank you mañana imports ️

Whenever I feel like spending money.this is where I shop. A gift for myself, or a gift for someone else - one stop shop from item to cards to wrapping.
New items every time, and they're curated too so everything is unique and has a story. The owner always shares pictures or information about each piece, and is clearly passionate and connected to his business.
Love supporting 'local' and ethically sourced. Great deals to be had too so even if the item was marked up to begin with, you always feel like you "won".
A favorite, and hope it sticks around for many years.

If you're looking to spruce up your altar, your home, or even your wardrobe, Mañana Imports is the perfect place to go!

This fantastic small shop has plenty on offer from a plethora of different cultures, all of which (I presume) are ethically sourced. And with a kind and very helpful owner at the helm, this place is definitely worth checking out at least once when you're in Calgary!

Nice shop to visit. If you are enjoying a walk along Kensington Road, take it a look, you will find interesting pieces like the singing bowls, jewelry, incense and more for your meditation, you might walk out of the store with a great gift. And the staff is very friendly.

Really cool store with so many interesting items. I could have spent more time in there had I had the time today! Lots of clothing, purses/bags, jewelry, items from Nepal just in from a recent trip. Lovely items. Best singing bowls I have seen. Pricey but worth it!

The owner is wonderful and extremely knowledged about everything in the store. Almost everything in the store is hand-made by Nepali and Indian artisans. My favorite store in Calgary.

Most unique store I have been to in calgary. Singing bowl and meditation instruments supply is incredible. Best incense I have found at the best price. Bought great lotus flower Meditation pillow handmade from Nepal and best thing is items are from different regions of the world. Owner is super friendly and offers great knowledge for the items he carries, and life in general. Helped point me toward some wonderful Buddhist and meditation texts. I never leave without picking something up. So grateful to have this store in the big city

Nice store. Lots of things from another world here. Hard to find in this day and age. Kind shopkeeper, too. People should value the existence of these businesses. People who follow a genuine spiritual discipline can also find many useful things here. If only modern stores remain, then you'll only be able to buy modern things. It will be a tragedy.

Such a unique and special place to go! There is such a huge selection that someone could spend hours in this store looking at everything. The staff are amazingly friendly and genuinely care about your experience! Whether you're just strolling by or looking for incense, singing bowls, or other amazing imported items, this store is definitely the place to go!

Awesome little store that's packed with a huge variety of cultural items. The staff is very friendly, and the prices are a steal.
