Batik Mega Mendung comes from Cirebon Indonesia. The megamendung motif which at first always has a blue color interspersed with red illustrates the masculinity and dynamic atmosphere, because in the manufacturing process there is interference from men. It is the male members of the tarekat who initially started the batik tradition. The deep blue and red colors also illustrate the psychology of coastal communities that are straightforward, open and egalitarian.
The history of the emergence of megamendung motifs based on existing books and literature always leads to the history of the arrival of the Chinese to the Cirebon region. This is not surprising because the Muara Jati port in Cirebon is a haven for migrants from within and outside the country. Clearly recorded in history, that Sunan Gunung Jati who spread Islam in the region of Cirebon in the 16th century, married Ratu Ong Tien from China. Some art objects brought from China such as ceramics, plates and fabrics decorated with clouds.
