Located in a strategic location in the middle of the city of Solo, very close to the Surakarta Kasunan Palace and the Great Mosque. Walking in the alleys of this village feels like exploring a time tunnel and returning to the past, during the great age of the Kasunanan Palace. We can enjoy the nuances of the past Solo which is represented by ancient buildings on the right and left sides of the alley. Here you will see houses that still retain their original form such as a combination of Colonial-Javanese, Joglo and Limasan architectural styles. These old houses are now boutiques that display the results of their batik production. The unique thing from this place is that we are allowed to see the process of making batik which is an attraction for tourists who come to visit this tourist village. Another interesting thing about this place is that we don’t just experience a different batik shopping experience but our tongue and eyes are spoiled by the choice of a beautiful coffee shop with a unique decoration around this area. Almost all of the boutique houses here have a small cafe for tourists who want to unwind after batik shopping. "Batik Kaoeman" with its coffee shop named "Kedai Kaoeman" is one of them. So I highly recommend this place for you to visit during your stay in SOLO, Indonesia.
