Dataran Helang, Langkawi
As cruise ships and ferries pull into Kuah Bay, Langkawi, visitors will be awed by the first sight of a huge bird statue at Dataran Helang. The 12-meter-high eagle, poised to take flight, stands above a concrete star shaped deck, which protrudes from the waterfront on Kuah Bay. Langkawi’s main ferry terminal and mall with duty free shopping are nearby. The old folklore has it that part of Langkawi’s name was formed from “helang” (eagle). The square is open to public.
