Our Uneventful yet Unforgettable Cable Car Ride

ANother unforgettable experience we had in Langkawi was our cable car ride in Oriental Village. The kids were pretty excited.


But you would notice that I was a little bit scared. Who wouldn't? Just look at how high it was!


The Cable Car is the Oriental Village’s most popular attraction. It takes passengers up Mount Mat Chinchang (Langkawi’s second tallest mountain) which stands at 709m above sea level. Many wonder what the big deal is and the views from here answer that question almost without words. Simply spectacular, the journey to the top will let you see the forested slopes of Mount Mat Chinchang (also known as Gunung Mat Chinchang) and even the Telaga Tujuh Waterfalls. SOURCE.


Ulk!


But it was all worth it. Just look at the breathtaking view on top of top of Mount Mat Chinchang! Beautiful!




I'll never forget this beautiful view.

The Oriental Village - A Famous Tourist Spot in Langkawi.

While I was researching online for our trip to Langkawi, one of the popular places that came up is the Oriental Village.


We were all so curious why it made it to one of the popular tourist spots in the city so we made sure that we check it out while in Langkawi.

This is what greeted us. A very beautiful view of the Oriental houses. We knew that we did the right decision of alloting at least half a day here.


The red bridge itself was an attraction.


But with the combination of nice houses (converted to shops) and little pockets of Asia (Korea, Japan, and more), I would say it was worth our time.




I just wished we had more time to do photo shoots at this place. But we had to go to Kuah Town immediately. Oh well, at least we had half a day to explore. I highly recommend that you visit this place in Langkawi.

Oriental Village is located at Telaga Harbour Park, Langkawi, Kedah, Malaysia. For other inquiries call, +60 4-959 1855.

Aseania Resort and the Best Swimming Pool, Ever!

Curious on where we stayed for one week in Langkawi? We were at Aseania Resort and we all loved this place. ♥


First of all, our family room was huge!


But the highlight of our stay was the enormous pool that the kids and kids-at-heart love so much. ♥


The moment we arrived at the hotel, we were given cool, welcome drinks.


We didn't wait too long until we were brought to our room. Time to rest after a long flight!


Sharing a Song this SUNDAY: For Good

Another beautiful song from the Wicked Musical Play that I saw a couple of weeks ago.


Aaaaah, I love, love this song. ♥

The Kids Loving Underwater World, Langkawi

Our next stop while in Langkawi was the Underwater World. A stop intended for the kids.


Right after lunch, we planned on checking this out. I've read a lot of good reviews about this place, so we were all very excited!

Our First Agenda in Langkawi: Check out the Beach!

As beach lovers as we were, our first agenda on our itinerary was to check out the beach!

And look at this beautiful road on the way to paradise...


Every step we took, we knew that a beautiful beach awaits us. And after a couple of minutes, we were finally at the shore...



I was surprised that it wasn't crowded. With a cloudy weather it would be perfect to swim and lounge around. Aaaah, the smell of salt water and and feel of the sand, it was definitely heavenly!
