Langkawi Craft Complex (Kompleks Kraf Langkawi)

Thanks to Langkawi’s status as a Duty Free Port, shopping in the city is popular and inexpensive. Established in 1966, the Langkawi Craft Complex (Kompleks Kraf Langkawi) specializes in traditional Malayan handcrafted items — things like hand-dyed batiks, silver jewelry, ceramics and woven tote bags.
The complex often hosts craft demonstrations and cultural performances. A series of on-site exhibitions cover topics like traditional wedding ceremonies, Islamic heritage and local legends.

Practical Info

The Langkawi Craft Complex is a bit out of the way, so you’ll either need to catch a taxi or join a tour to visit.
