When traveling or walking around, it is incomplete if it does not bring fruit for family or friends. Even before reaching the destination, the first thing to think about is souvenirs that we will buy upon arriving at the destination. In addition to direct tourist attractions, in every tourist destination, of course, there is a special place to buy a typical souvenir, so we do not need to go around to find the desired item.

Denpasar, Bali

The souvenir outlets Krisna Store is located in 5 locations, one of them on Jl. Raya Tuban No. 2X, Denpasar. Krisna provides complete souvenirs, from Balinese specialties to fabrics to souvenirs.

Balikpapan, East Kalimantan

Inpres Market Vegetable Garden, located on Jl. Lt. Gen. Soeprapto, is the first choice to look for souvenirs typical of Balikpapan. Although named the Vegetable Market, this market is not where Menong’s friends buy souvenirs in the form of vegetables. One of the compulsory souvenirs of Balikpapan is the result of processed stones. This market is crowded, especially during the rock boom some time ago.

Agate stone yah... yo selected

Various types of stones, readings, kalimaya, sapphires, topaz, and others, are available in this market from cheap prices around Rp. 20,000 for small unprocessed chunks until the stone costs millions.

In addition to the stone, Menong's friends can also look for souvenirs typical of Kalimantan fabric or tiger nails—the name of a typical snack in Balikpapan, yes, not real tiger nails.

Kendari, South Sulawesi

When visiting Kendari, the capital of Southeast Sulawesi Province, one of the souvenir centers that can be visited is the Bravo Shop located on Jl. Lawata No. 12 A, Korumba Kendari. This not-sized shop provides Kendari's distinctive fabric, T-shirts, and types of Kendari nuts like cashews.

Pontianak, West Kalimantan

The line of souvenir shops typical of West Kalimantan can be found on Jl. Pattimura, Pontianak, and all are available in one area. In addition to being more complete, of course, the price is cheaper when compared to buying directly at tourist attractions.

Makassar, South Sulawesi

Shop Unggul; this name is very familiar for Menong's friends who visit Makassar. Here Menong's friends can buy a variety of typical fabrics of Sulawesi, disco beans, bagea, and typical Sulawesi decoration. Unggul is located on Jl. Pattimura No. 8, Makassar. Unfortunately, the parking lot is not so big that the entourage using the bus had to walk far. But don’t worry, this store is located in the city center that is easily accessible by public transport or rickshaws.


Specialties: Sulawesi fabric

Disco nuts 😍

A similar place that Menong's friends can choose is a So-by-light Shop that is on Jl. Sulawesi No. 181, Makassar. The place is relatively wider and consists of 2 floors that are comfortable and equipped with corners of food counters. Suitable for those who are tired of waiting for shopping.




Another souvenir that can be a friend of Menong Pat is that salted fish can be obtained in the area of Gusung Paotere, a traditional market area that sells processed fish.




Do not forget to pack it well and close it, yes, because it smells good enough 'aduhai' when taken through an airplane later, yaaa!
