Langkawi
comprises a group of 99 tropical islands lying off the north-western coast
of Peninsular Malaysia, about 30km from Kuala Perlis and 51km from Kuala
Kedah on the mainland. The main island is popularly known as Pulau
Langkawi. The islands are blessed with an intriguing heritage of fabulous
myths and legends of ogres and gigantic birds, warriors and fairly
princesses, battles and romance. As a natural paradise, the islands are
perhaps unmatched anywhere else in Southeast Asia.

2,000
meters above sea level, Genting Highlands, a magnificent city on the
hilltop, is but a mere 50km from Kuala Lumpur. It offers a cool respite
from the hustle and bustle of the city capital. Crisp invigorating
mountain air complemented by majestic scenery spreads out before your
eyes. Lush green tropical rainforest shrouded in a veil of perpetual mist
makes it hard to believe that you are just minutes away from the
sweltering equatorial heat and the ever dusty city. Here, consistent
temperatures between 16 and 23 degrees provide natural air conditioning.
