Description: Eagle Square | It is an iconic statue located on the Pulau | Kuah Jetty | Langkawi | Malaysia | Langkawi one of the most sought out tourist attractions in Malaysia. No wonder why it’s known as the jewel of kedah. It gets its name from the red backed eagle which flies above the island. It is an iconic statue located on the southern part of Pulau Langkawi, on the Kuah Jetty. The Eagle Square has an impressive 12 meter tall statue of a red backed Eagle standing on a blue star shaped platform. With its wings spread, the majestic Eagle of Dataran Lang looks ready to soar into the sky. Dataran Lang conveniently called as the Eagle Square, celebrates these majestic birds of Langkawi. From legend we get to know that ‘Lang’ comes from the Malay word ‘Helang’, which simply means eagle and ‘Kawi’ meaning marble. The convocation of eagles flying high in the sky and land full of marble do lend some credibility to this legend. This sculpture acts as a guide to mariners and leads them to the Kuah harbor. Situated near the ferry terminal, the Eagle square has artistic water features, a small pond to do paddle boating, verdant green park to enjoy a picnic, and a perfect background for memorable pictures. In the night, the Eagle of Langkawi is lit up with glitzy lights giving it a whole new dimension. Background Music : Dizzy Hope you will enjoy this video.
