1. Visit Dataran Lang
Dataran Lang which means ‘Eagle Square’ epitomizes the very significance of Langkawi. Here is where you can see and enjoy the monumental 12-meter sea eagle ready to take flight on a square located within Kuah Town. It is just beside the Kuah Jetty which means that if you are coming to Langkawi Island through the ferry service, the gigantic eagle is the first to ‘welcome’ you. Around here, you will also be able to take photos of the surrounding ponds, bridges and others. From here, you will also be able to go around the retail shops and outlets where you will be able to enjoy some duty-free shopping.


2. Find out the stories of Mahsuri’s Tomb

Located at Padang Matsirat, the Mahsuri’s Tomb is perhaps the most illustrious place to visit as the legend of Mahsuri is very much synonymous with Langkawi Island. Here, you will find a complex that very much narrates the story and holds the shrine of Mahsuri whose story goes that she was wrongly accused for committing adultery and was subsequently sentenced to death. It was told that white blood poured out of her body that signified her innocence where she then cursed the island for 7 generations before her death. This is where you can get a pictorial understanding of the story and make your own judgements on whether the stories are true or merely legends.
