Kasongan
Kasongan is place for those who like collecting pottery such as pot, sculpture, cup, carving etc.
Batik Shop
Batik is a technique of manual wax resist dyeing applied to whole cloth, or cloth made using this technique. Batik is made either by drawing dots and lines of the resist with a spouted tool called a canting, or by printing the resist with a copper stamp called a cap. The applied wax resists dyes and therefore allows the artisan to color selectively by soaking the cloth in one color, removing the wax with boiling water, and repeating if multiple colors are desired.
Kotagede
Kotagede has been famed as the hub of Yogya’s silver industry since the 1930s. But this quiet old town, which is now a suburb of Yogyakarta, was the first capital of the Mataram kingdom, founded by Panembahan Senopati in 1582. Senopati is buried in the small graveyard of an old mosque located to the south of the town’s central market.
If you're in Yogjakarta and looking for a good silvercraft, you should go here. This is a great place to go if you like silver or jewelry. It's fun to see how the items are made, the prices are very reasonable and there are plenty of other shops to browse.
