The nearest market town to Tetebatu is Kotaraja, which is known for its blacksmiths. Kotaraja is also host to a Sasak stick-fighting festival each August. The fights are both fierce and real, and end gracefully at the first sight of blood. The biggest markets in Kotaraja are Monday and Wednesday mornings.
