Step into the vibrant traditions of southern Sri Lanka with our exclusive Batik Product Display and Bobbin Lace Making Experience — a curated cultural showcase at The Fortress Resort & Spa.
Discover the rich legacy of batik artistry, where fabric becomes a canvas for intricate wax-resist dyeing patterns, each piece reflecting the soul of local craftsmanship. Wander through our stunning display of hand-crafted batik pieces, and witness firsthand the vibrant color stories and age-old techniques behind this textile tradition.
Complementing this is a rare opportunity to experience the delicate art of bobbin lace making, a skill passed down through generations. Our seasoned lace-makers invite you to observe and engage with this centuries-old technique, offering you a personal look into the fine detail and patience required to craft these exquisite patterns.
This experience is more than a display — it’s a dialogue with southern culture, guided by passionate local artisans who bring history to life.
Please note: This experience requires prior reservation to ensure a personalized and enjoyable experience.
