Kampung Kraftangan Kota Bharu

Kampung Kraftangan in Kota Bharu gathers Kelantan’s craft traditions—silverwork, batik, woodcarving and songket—into workshops and showrooms for browsing and photos. Artisans demonstrate techniques that still define east-coast Malay material culture. The village is a living craft street more than a theme park: watch hands at work, ask about motifs, and shop for authentic pieces. Come mid-morning when studios are open, combine with nearby cultural museums, and bargain politely if buying textiles or silver. Leave with a scarf, silver piece or simply clearer appreciation of why Kelantan remains Malaysia’s craft heartland.
