Penang Batik Factory

Until recently, I didn't know there is a batik factory in Penang (FB Page). After all, it is the east cost states that are known for producing beautiful batik. This is definitely the place to go to spend money. He he he... And it's worth every cent you spend.

Visitors are offered a tour of the factory. I highly recommend you take the tour. Watching the workers painting batik is quite fascinating. Batik produced at the factory are sold only at its shop. There are batik dresses, pareos, blouses, shirts, scarves etc. It's hard not to get carried away.
