To do Shopping is not difficult there. At the time you arrive at Jam Gadang, there you’ll see the Pasar Ateh, central market, close from you. Just take a walk from Jam Gadang to get the market.

In Pasar Ateh, market, people find many kiosks sell souvenirs. Hand made product and fabricant are available there. There are many kiosks at the ground level of Pasar Ateh sell accessories, silver jewellery product are easy to find in Pasar Ateh, earings, bracelet, neckless and ring are sell at the kiosk. Price is one thing to be considered, those products may be cheap and may expensive, depend on it’s quality and specification.

For clothes products, and the specific hand made clothes products like songket, baju kurung, veil or shawl you may find them at second storey of Pasar Ateh buliding. There are a lot of traditional Minangkabau clothes sell in that market. In my opinion, you have to try purchase one item of the cloth, why, because all the traditional clothes product in Pasar Ateh are very special, very unique, most of them are hand made, worked by traditional people who live in Bukittinggi and from other nearby places around the city. That is why you will not find kind of product in place, except in Bukittinggi. So you are please and welcome to Bukittinggi. Jam Gadang always stands to wait your coming. (Lucky Lukmansyah)
