Natural Batik Village

If you're looking for an indoor leisurely activity to bide your time in Kuantan then this is an idea! Choose from a variety of batik art painting options or tie-dyeing - let your creativity go wild! Once done, you can pop in to the store to pick up more ready made batik wear. Friendly service. Do take note though that your art would need time to be processed so depending on what you had chosen, you might need to have them delivered to you later. Alternatively do this on the way to your island destination and then pick up your art piece on the way back.

Fun activity to do with family and friends, have large parking area. Inside there are many souvenirs, clothes for men and women, baju kelawar too but note that they are overpriced. It is kind of dusty inside and warm too. For me the batik colouring is the main attraction located on the side of the building, an open air area equipped with fans but still hot, you can choose the size and design of batik canvas as low as RM15 then they will provide batik colouring. We spend almost 2 hours there, up to your colouring technique. I prefer to take time to mix the colours to get the shade that I want. There are also shirts colouring and other activities.

We visited Natural Batik Village this morning. Unfortunately, no one greeted us or said welcome when we arrived, so it was quite confusing to figure out where to do the batik painting. We had to ask at the counter before anyone explained it to us. The staff didn’t seem friendly or welcoming, even those outside. There were no clear instructions, so the whole experience at the beginning felt awkward. That said, we still had fun doing the batik painting together; RM15 per adult. Overall, it was okay and we were happy in the end. But we really hope you’ll improve the system so customers don’t feel confused or unwelcomed.

From the outside it looks quite ordinary, almost like the typical souvenir shops you’d find anywhere. But once you step in… wow! It’s like a paradise of Malaysian batik and handicrafts. They even have a batik canting corner where customers can try it themselves — such a unique experience. The variety is amazing and the prices are unbelievably reasonable. I personally bought a sling bag that I saw elsewhere for RM70, but here it was only RM20! Totally worth the visit, highly recommended!

Lots of DIY batik panels to choose from, we spent a very pleasant hour or so painting our choice and came back the day after to pick the finished items up after they had been washed and mounted. The store is large and the staff are very friendly, there is a huge choice of clothing items at reasonable prices with lots of special offers. We visited at the start of the season so the other shops/cafe weren't open but we still spent a good couple of hours here
