What is Batik? Batik is a traditional Indonesian dyeing technique, and the fabric made using this technique is also referred to as batik. Batik is made using a technique called "wax-resist dyeing," where patterns are drawn on the fabric with melted wax, preventing the dye from penetrating those areas, thus creating complex and beautiful patterns. Among the various regions of Indonesia, the most famous centers of batik are Surakarta (commonly known as Solo) and Yogyakarta in Central Java. Solo batik is known for its delicate and elegant designs and calm colors, and its style is influenced by the royal court culture rooted in this region. Generally, batik is mainly classified into the following two types: Hand-drawn batik (Batik Tulis): Batik where artisans draw patterns by hand Stamped batik (Batik Cap or Batik Print): Batik made with stamps (molds) or machine printing Nowadays, thanks to printed batik, it has become easier to incorporate the beautiful patterns of batik into everyday life at a more affordable price. In 2009, Indonesian batik culture was recognized by UNESCO as an "Intangible Cultural Heritage," and its artistic and historical value was internationally recognized.
