Langkawi is not being called The Jewel of Kedah for nothing. Turquoise water surrounded the glimmering powdery sands making this spectacular island as one of Malaysia's top holiday destinations. Langkawi also has a duty-free status which means you can shop your heart out here! Not only it is a paradise for shoppers, but this island also has numerous kinds of other attractions that you can swing by.
If you're into daredevil activities, you'll be loving Panorama SkyCab. Sitting a hundred metres away from the land is enough to get your adrenaline pumping. However, if you're looking to go back to nature, you might want to visit at Kilim Karst Geoforest Park and Pulau Payar Marine Park. Getting to know the underwater life together with exploring the greenery will restore your mind into a state of tranquillity. Nature is magical! There is also Pulau Cenang, Mahsuri Museum and many other attractions where you can drop by. There is no shortage of activities if you are here in Langkawi.
Panorama Langkawi is a ‘must-try’ if you visit Langkawi. There are many attractions here, but the ones that you should try are the SkyBridge and SkyCab. Go and ride a cable car using SkyCab to experience the panoramic view of the greeneries while being 650 metres away from the land. Dangling amidst the lush green forests, with only the open blue sky right in front of you is something you should do at least once in a lifetime.
One of the main attractions here a walk on the SkyBridge. Yes! It is what it is, so brace yourself and walk through a 125-meter-long suspended bridge. The bridge is 100 metres above the ground, and the scenery is breathtaking. Some even cry in awe of the beautiful sight, but most usually cry because of fear. The sky filled with silver clouds is just before your eyes with the breezy wind touching your skin. The sound of the wind intertwines with the echo of singing birds from the woods - this memory right here will last a lifetime.
The ticket price for SkyBridge will cost you around RM6.00 while SkyCab's ticket price is RM55.00.
