today UNESCO has inaugurated that Batik as Indonesia's cultural heritage. well because of that, today (maybe) people around Indonesia wears Batik to celebrate it. I'm very happy and proud with that. Batik has many special meanings of each the 'patterns' or designs and there are some city in Indonesia has their own specific Batik; Jogjakarta's Batik, Cirebon's Batik, Solo's Batik, and more. actually I know a little about the differences but its quiet hard to explain in writing haha. there are two kind of Batik; Tulis/Paint and Cap/Stamp/Print. the most popular and the most expensive is Batik Tulis. because its very hard to make and it's really original handmade of the artists.
this is batik that I wore today, and this is Jogjakarta's Batik
we loves Batik! (Y)
