Langkawi 走一走: 中

So this time round where did we go? 和上次一樣﹐we rented a car as this is the easiest way to explored Langkawi.


Eagle Square
Dataran Lang (Eagle Square) is the first sight that greets you when you arrive at Langkawi island by the sea. Dataran Lang has a huge sculpture of an eagle poised proudly facing the sea, welcoming you to this mystical island.


Air Terjun Temurun
The Temurun waterfalls are conveniently located in the Mat Cincang Nature Park of Datai, offering the ‘hot’ visitor refreshing waters from the mountains.


Durian Perangin Falls
This waterfall is located on the northern slope of Gunung Raya, the highest mountain of Langkawi.


Pantai Pasir Hitam
Pantai Pasir Hitam or Black Sand Beach is a mixture of black sand and normal sand. Unlike other black-sand beaches which might be due to iron oxide.


Kuah Town
Kuah is the capitol of this island and is bustling with activities. Kuah Town has many duty free shops which you can buy local products and have nice good food.


Pasar Malam
Pasar Malam or night market is a place where all the locals gather, selling daily use goods and local Malay foods. This kind of night market is available 5 nights a week but in deferent locations such as Kuah Town, Kedawang, Ulu Melaka, Air Hangat, Padang Matsirat. The largest night market which I went is held in Kuah Town every Saturday and Wednesday at 7.00pm to 11.00pm.
