Places in Langkawi, Kedah, Malaysia

Places in Langkawi is a broad category that includes towns, villages and geographical entities such as hills, mountains, bays and straits. Only the islands of Langkawi are provided a separate listing, as of now. Ever since Langkawi was developed for tourism, many of the towns and villages have seen rapid development. Hotels, resorts and new tourist attractions are built in former rural land. This gives the people of Langkawi the opportunity to find employment. Nevertheless, many of the traditional villages still remain in Langkawi, and a drive around the island brings us to lovely kampung houses that have remained very much the same from the days when Langkawi was just a rural backwater of Kedah.

On this page, I list out the many place names that you will find in Langkawi. I hope that through the description provided, you will have a better idea where these places are located.
