Batek-Lah

Top choice in George Town


Malaysian-produced batik printed cloth is made into a variety of men's and women's fashions and gift items here. Some of the more expensive designs are hand-drawn rather than block-printed, making them unique.

Staff can also arrange for clothes tailored to your request using your choice of batik cloth.
