Souvenir

When Tourists visit one of the places of interest, they never forget to buy some souvenirs before continuing the journey. A souvenir is an object kept in memory of a person, place, or event. The souvenirs may be for themselves, may be for their relatives, and may be for their close friends.

On the way they are usually accompanied by a guide, who shows the way and explains the sights. They also bring with them books of information.

Foreign tourist usually buy batik shirts and things made of silver and leather in Yogyakarta and puppets (wayang) in Solo and Bandung. Local crafts are of high quality, especially textile design (called batik), woodcarving, an silversmiths. The tourists also buy clothes from Samarinda and Ujung Pandang. They also watch the local people in Bali carve the wood. They are fascinated by all these things.
