Sometimes, if you do not have enough time, of course the souvenir shop in the hotel you are staying will do. Surely, the prices are comparably more expensive than those outside the hotel and it will not give you any special memories like when you spend some time visiting traditional markets to find for unique objects as you wish.

Shopping in the art market needs some skill of bargaining. Many people have successfully got the thing they want to buy with half price if they bargain well or if they have enough patients to browse all of stalls in the market. You should never feel ashamed of bargaining. The smarter you are in bargaining, the lower the price you will get. Unfortunately, if you are not good at bargaining, probably you will buy an object at a higher price than its normal price. In addition, there are various paintings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and various other small souvenirs made from wood, decorative masks, unique jewelry, etc.

Be remembering that all items here can be negotiable and it needs your skill to bargain the items as well as possible. If you think less satisfied with the price being negotiated, do not be afraid to leave the seller. As long as prices are still give profits for the seller, they will call you back. The best time to visit the market is in the morning since the seller has just finished praying and it is believed that if they can sell well items in the morning, it will be good day for them. It is opened start from 08.00 until 18.00, except for some religious days. The price ranges available from Rp. 5,000 – Rp. 500.000.

You can bring home a lot of unique items if you can persuade the seller, even in the bargaining are advised to bid for a third of the selling price. Interesting!!!
