Better to explore the "home factory"
to be honest, I dissatisfied with those batik motif displayed at stores along Laweyan main street and alleyway, they mostly display and selling modern batiks while I preferred the oldskul motif and therefor I recommend for those who seek "batik lawasan" to explore the batik home factory as those home industry offers you lower price than you see on stores. for instance, try to see "Batik GressTenan at Jl. Setono rt 02, rw 02". happy batik hunting and keep in your mind; "Batik is the Indonesia authentic cultural heritage"

Avoid Sundays
As part of my wedding weekend festivities, my husband and I took 40 guests to Laweyan. Despite booking a few months ahead, the tour coordinator from Forum Batik Laweyan only told us on D-2 that all batik-making activities close on Sundays. We managed to pay 8 artists to come to work that day so that my guests could see how batik were made. So clearly, avoid visiting on Sunday. The walking tour was hot and there wasn't any good resto nearby. Looking back, we'd rather visit Danar Hadi or Go Tik Swan museum instead.
