PENANG BATIK FACTORY, TELUK BAHANG, PENANG

Zhen & Min went for a tour at Penang Batik Factory situated at Teluk Bahang, Penang.  Zhen gets to batik paint again!

You actually need to call in to pre-book 1 day ahead for the batik painting.  But Zhen was lucky that day as there were not many visitors around, the staff drew a piece of 14" x 14" (RM25) picture for her to paint.
