WELCOME TO LANGKAWI
ISLAND!!
- Langkawi has a lingering legend woven into its history. Ask anyone on the island about the tragic story of a beautiful young lady named Mahsuri, and you'll hear a tale of love, jealousy and a curse that was placed upon the island by her for seven generations.
- Other popular destinations are the Field of Burnt Rice,
Hot Springs, Telaga Tujuh (The Seven Wells) and the Beach of Black Sand.
Boat tours are organised to Tasik Dayang Bunting (Lake of the Pregnant
Maiden), Gua Cerita (Cave of Stories) and Gua Langsir (Curtain Cave).
- For a more intimate time with nature, go trekking
through the pristine rainforest that covers most of Langkawi, or go on a
boat tour of the mangroves. There are also opportunities to go for a dive,
or play a round of golf at some of the 5-star resorts. Langkawi also has
an underwater world, with an underground tunnel that runs through a giant
aquarium, that has received rave reviews.
