Pasar Wisata, Bukit Tinggi

Pasar Wisata, Bukit Tinggi, Sumatra, just south of Jam Gadang, is a complex selling various hand woven, moslem praying mat and mukenah, hand made songket/local textile, wedding knick knack, gift, souvenir, food, everything. There are also stalls at the front and next to the streets. Most of the prices in each kiosk are similar and you can bargain up to 50%. Most of the souvenirs sold here are not bad but not too high quality though.
