Kampung Belanga Pecah, Langkawi

Kampung Belanga Pecah, Langkawi (6 June 2005)


Kampung Belanga Pecah (GPS: 6.38832, 99.86221) is a village in Langkawi. It is located on the eastern part of the island, along Jalan Ayer Hangat, near Galeria Perdana and Barn Thai Restaurant.

The name Belanga Pecah means "broken pot". It is related to the tale of the big fight that broke out in the wedding feast for the daughter of Gunung Machincang and the son of Gunung Raya. In the ensuring row, pots broke, gravy was spilled and hot water splashed, creating places around the island that we know of today.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
