The story behind the destination

Get to know this place.

The Mentawai Batik Craft Center (Pusat Kerajinan Batik Mentawai) is an educational and craft tourism destination where visitors can directly witness the making of signature Mentawai batik. The batik fabric produced here is uniquely distinctive, as its patterns are inspired by the natural richness of Siberut, local culture, and traditional tattoo motifs (titi) passed down by Mentawai ancestors. Beyond learning the process, travelers can also purchase this batik fabric as an exclusive souvenir.
