Langkawi, officially known as Langkawi the Jewel of Kedah (Malay: Langkawi Permata Kedah) is an archipelago of 104 islands in the Andaman Sea, some 30 km off the mainland coast of northwestern Malaysia. The islands are a part of the state of Kedah, which is adjacent to the Thai border. On 15 July 2008, Sultan Abdul Halim of Kedah had consented to the change of name to Langkawi Permata Kedah in conjunction with his Golden Jubilee Celebration. By far the largest of the islands is the eponymous Langkawi Island with a population of some 64,792, the only other inhabited island being nearby Tuba Island. Langkawi is also an administrative district with the town of Kuah as largest town. Langkawi is a duty-free island.
The name Langkawi is thought to have existed by the early 15th century, although in the 16th century the island of Langkawi was also marked on maps variously as Langa, Langka, Lansura, and Langapura.
There are many suggestions for the origin of the name of Langkawi. According to one interpretation, Langkawi means island of the reddish-brown eagle in colloquial Malay. The Malay word for eagle is helang - which is shortened to "lang", while kawi is the name of a red stone used as a chalk to mark goods. This interpretation was used to create the landmark sculpture of an eagle as the symbol of Langkawi at Dataran Helang (Eagle Square) in Kuah.
"Thank you" is a common expression of gratitude. It often refers to a thank you letter, a letter written to express appreciation.
Thank You or Thank U may also refer to:

So far I have traveled to 50+ countries in my lifetime and I have to say, I fell in love with the nature in Langkawi. I am almost hesitant to tell you about it, as I don't want tourism to spoil what we have experienced. At the same time I wish you could all see this place. I know I have more of the world to see, but Langkawi Malaysia ranks very high for us. Come with us as we show you our guide to Langkawi, so you can see what it has to offer with kids. We experienced rainforests, mangroves, wildlife, beaches, and even learned about their culture and legends. It was absolutely majestic watching eagles soar above us. That would be a rare sighting in the USA and they were plentiful while in Langkawi. We would like to thank Naturally Langkawi for providing us this week-long experienc...

The best things to do in langkawi island at night: 1. Riding a bike and wander around town is my favorite thing to do in Langkawi island 2.

Just across the road in front of Bayview Hotel Kuah Langkawi. They have full menu of seafood dishes and many other stir fried dishes to choose from. 3.
