Sky bridge and brilliant scenery
You need to get to the Sky Bridge by cable car. It lifts passengers to an altitude of 700 meters above sea level. It is the longest curved bridge in the world.
From it you can admire the beautiful Andaman Sea and islets on one side, and on the other side a mountain range overlooking the highest mountain in Langkawi Gunang Raya - 881 m above sea level.
Another place from the so-called commercial but definitely worth a visit.
