The 6 Best Specialty Museums in Langkawi, Kedah

July 25, 2021 Florencio Paulino

Langkawi is a serene archipelago of 140 islands – only a few of which are inhabited. The largest of these is the eponymous Langkawi Island, which has UNESCO World Geopark status because of its richly populated (by wildlife, that is) conservation areas. The best way to experience these ecological wonders is from high above, on the Langkawi Sky Bridge that stretches above the rainforest. Cheekily-named Pregnant Maiden freshwater lake is a great place to take a dip or play keep-away with the kleptomaniac monkeys.

Very few tourists visiting Langkawi know about this place. You need to take a taxi or charter a car to come to this hidden diamond of Langkawi. All the beautiful collections of Dr. Mahatir, the Prime Minister of Malaysia, are on display in the 3 excellent display halls. The architecture of these 3 halls is very distinctive.

Rice Museum

Reviewed By 702patrikl - Uppsala County, Sweden

I read an interesting review here on Tripadvisor and staying on the west side of the island I decided to walk there. It was definitely not a waste of time. I entered the free museum and asked for a guide and this man offered me a one hour free tour. I learned about how rice is cultivated and farmed as well as all the local spices and coconuts. A really interesting tour which was awarded with a good tip...

Laman Padi Langkawi

Reviewed By garywB3196NN - Welwyn, United Kingdom

We had a great Sunday lunch, local Malay food well presented with big rice sieve as serving tray. Banana leaves I think add to the authenticity and taste. I wanted to eat rendang, choice of duck, chicken, beef and lamb (shank). Nice looking over the padi fields. We had lamb rendang, great flavour and highly recommend with condiments and side dishes.

Since the resident tiger was relocated to new grounds (please search "Animal Adventures - Langkawi), Raccoons have since "invaded" the cafe. Raccoons are now on exhibit on a daily basis to keep guests entertained while they sipping on the best coffee on Langkawi
