Langkawi, Tropical archipelago in Strait of Malacca, Malaysia
Langkawi encompasses 99 islands with white sand beaches, limestone cliffs, dense forests, and mountains reaching heights of 880 meters above sea level.
The district has ancient connections to the Kedah Sultanate, with maritime trade records dating back through centuries of regional commerce and cultural exchange.
Local communities maintain traditional fishing practices while incorporating influences from Malay, Chinese, Indian, and Thai cultures in their daily activities and celebrations.
Ferry services connect the main island to Kuala Kedah, while Langkawi International Airport provides direct flights to major Southeast Asian cities.
The district received UNESCO Geopark status in 2007 due to its geological formations that span over 500 million years of Earth's history.
