Eagle Square - Landmark in Malaysia

This man-made giant eagle is designed with its wings flapping up, overlooking the sea majestically as if it is ready to take flight and conquer the sky. Eagle Square is an impressive landmark, with its impressive 12-metre high giant eagle signifying the Lang or brown eagle from which Langkawi got its name. Other than the eagle, shopping, chain restaurants such as KFC, Baskin Robbins, Kenny Roger and Starbucks are also available here. For budget travellers, food is relatively inexpensive especially if you walk into any of the chain restaurants. The best time to visit is in the evening if you wish to stay a bit longer. The area is generally open without much shade so if you arrive on a sizzling hot afternoon, bring a hat or rub on some sun block.
