Review: Batik Canting Experience The batik canting experience was the best and so much fun! 🎨✨ Even though we had never done batik canting before, the staff guided us wonderfully from start to finish. Their teaching method was easy to understand, and they were always there to help when we weren't sure what to do. It was a truly fun experience and perfect for first-timers. Highly recommended! 🤍

Highly recommended. We'll definitely repeat our visit. The place is spacious, has a cafe, and an air-conditioned room for parents to wait while their children play. Very satisfied.
