Penang Batik Factory is one of the pioneers of batik manufacturing on the island. The complex is divided into three sections - an art gallery, boutique and workshop. Surrounded by lots of tropical greenery, it is one of Penang's well known sightseeing spots and offers a wide variety of quality batik, from block prints batiks to hand-drawn pieces.
