1) Pulau Langkawi

ASSALAMUALAIKUM AND SALAM SEJAHTERA...

For the first entry on 15 destination..
I would like to choose Pulau Langkawi..
I prefer to go there because Pulau Langkawi is in Malaysia
 and I visited it for a long time ago..
when I was 17 years old which I was waiting for SPM result..
I go with my family and I found many interesting places
and also know the history that happen in Pulau Langkawi for the past.

Here, we start with the map of Pulau Langkawi..
where it is located ?


Langkawi island is an archipelago of 104 islands lying in the north western coast of Peninsular Malaysia. The exact location of these tropical islands is at the site where the Straits of Malacca meets the waters of the Andaman Seas.

The largest of these islands is called Langkawi Island and is bigger than the Penang Island.The other islands in this group are Island of Pregnant Maiden (Pulau Dayang Bunting), Lion Island (Pulau Singa Besar) and Beras Basah Island.The smallest of these islands are atolls roughly the size of an ordinary house!

Langkawi is coined from the Malay words Lang and Kawi. Lang is a brown eagle and Kawi is a local manganese stone.The ancient fishermen must have seen eagles flying clutching the manganese stones! A giant monument of a brown eagle clutching the manganese stone greets all visitors to Langkawi near the Kuah Jetty.




The main tourist attractions of Langkawi Island is its virgin white sandy beaches.The beaches have very gentle continental slope and the water is crystal clear.



This island is unique in the sense that it has so many legendsand myths associated with it.Langkawi Island is therefore also called Pulau Lagenda or Legendary Island.

The most talked about legend is that of Mahsuri who is said to have laid a curse on this island for seven generations.Luckily the period of this curse is over now and Langkawi Island is fast becoming an internationally recognised tourist destination. 





The government of Malaysia has declared the entire Langkawi Island as a duty free zone. Hence this island is also termed Duty Free Island.All goods sold in this island are exempted from government tax.Therefore this Legendary Island is a haven for the shoppers.You only need to stay in Langkawi for a minimum of 48 hours to take back home a reasonable amount of tax free goods.

2) The Big Island, Hawaii

ASSALAMUALAIKUM AND SALAM SEJAHTERA...


I found the Big Island to be very welcoming. It made me feel curious, interested, 
and more open to new ideas than I normally am. 


The Island of Hawaii, also called the Big Island or Hawaii Island is a volcanic island (the eastern-most and southern-most in the Hawaiian islands chain) in the North Pacific Ocean.
 With an area of 4,028 square miles (10,430 km2), it is larger than all of the other Hawaiian Islands combined and is the largest island in the United States. The Island of Hawaii is administered as the County of Hawaii within the state of HawaiiThe county seat is HiloIn modern times, Hawaii is known as the "Big Island" to reduce confusion between Hawaii Island and the state.



 The Big Island is often called the Orchid Isle for its heavy blankets of fragrant blossoms, but its given its official name to avoid confusion with the other islands of KauaiMaui and Oahu. In the past, the name Hawaii was used to describe both the chain of islands and the Big Island of Hawaii itself. The Big Island Hawaii is twice as large as the other islands combined and with two volcanoes still active, one which is the most volatile in the world, the island continues growing. Mauna Kea and Kohala are Big Island's extinct volcanoes while Hualalai is considered dormant. The volcanoes are an integral part of Hawaii and create fascinating landscapes and backdrops that attract thousands each year.

The Big Island Hawaii is also well known for its fun events and holidays. When in the area on a Big Island vacation don't miss any current events or you'll miss a chance to experience the Aloha spirit at its finest. In April Big Island activities include attending the Merrie Monarch Hula Festival in Hilo. With total emphasis on Hawaiian history and culture, the week-long festival hosts demonstrations, craft fairs, art exhibits, exciting performances, a large parade and a three-day hula competition! Each year in Kona, Big Island Hawaii hosts the Ironman Triathlon World Championships which kicks off in October. Coffee lovers flock to the fun Kona Coffee Festival each year in November to taste world renowned Kona coffee.






An important aspect to know is the Big Island of Hawaii is not easily driven around. The loop encompasses more than 200 miles and stopping to see attractions makes the trip much longer. Visitors can make an adventure of it easily beginning with exploring the Kohala and Kona areas while staying at one of the Big Island resorts or hotels. Hit the north coast next and drive around stopping in Hilo for an overnight stay or two. Leaving Hilo, the next obvious stop is Volcanoes National Park. If there's time, consider taking a full day or two to explore the fascinating and uniquely beautiful and dramatic terrain. Swing around to the southern coast, stopping as you wish on your way back to Kohala or Kona.










To really see the island, a drive around is the best way. There are plenty of stops for enjoying Big Island activities like golfing, surfing and swimming. If the island journey sounds like an exhaustive journey, stick to the west Kona Kohala Coast and amp up your Big Island of Hawaii trip by opting for various tours in the area like a Circle Island Tour. Take in a Big Island luau, relax on a private lanai at sunset and simply let go of it all as you soak up all that the Big Island has to give.
