LANGKAWI

Langkawi’s history is steeped in legend, trade, and transformation. Once a quiet fishing and farming community, the island was historically part of ancient maritime routes, frequented by Arab, Indian, and Chinese traders. Its name is believed to derive from the Malay words “helang” (eagle) and “kawi” (reddish-brown), symbolizing the majestic birds that still grace its skies today. Langkawi’s most enduring legend is that of Mahsuri, a young woman wrongfully accused of adultery whose curse is said to have shadowed the island for seven generations. In the late 20th century, Langkawi was designated a duty-free zone, igniting its transformation into a premier luxury destination. Today, it stands as a UNESCO Global Geopark, renowned for its pristine beaches, ancient rainforests, and cultural mystique.
