From a backwater peripheral district, Langkawi has now become a major touristic destination, attracting visitors from all over the world thanks to its pristine tropical beaches and natural attractions. In 2008 the archipelago was renamed to 'Langkawi Permata Kedah', which literally means 'Langkawi, the jewel of Kedah' — an appropriate name, given that Langkawi truly is a jewel, a tropical paradise that begs to be explored.
