Langkawi Cable car Experience
Included in a must visit place in Langkawi, the Langkawi Cable Car offers visitors a spectacular 360 degree panoramic view form “Gunung Mat Chinchang” (Mat Chinchang Mountain).
Located in at the southwest coast of Langkawi, the cable car entrance is located inside the Oriental Village which has duty free shops, cafes and a hotel to offer visitors. Tickets are sold at RM25.00 (Adult) and RM18.00 (Child) for a round trip.
The bubble shape cable cars will take you up the 45 degree incline ride. It covers a total distance of 2.2km linking the Base Station at the foothill of Mat Chinchang to the top most station call the Top Station with a total time of between 15-20 minute.
Along the route up one are able to see numerous geological features and species of flora and the breathtaking view of the famous Seven Wells Waterfall known locally as Telaga Tujuh.
There are a total of 2 viewing platforms on the top station. The platforms provide a 360 degree panoramic views of the seas, the many islands of Langkawi and even the neighbouring Thailand.
Another attraction on the mountain is the unique Curved Suspension Bridge. The steel bridge is an engineering marvel that really worth a visit.
To get there, one will have to disembark at the Top Station (second station) and head down on a short and well marked jungle trail.
The 125 metre curved bridge is suspended about 685 metres above sea level. Walking the curve path high above with the breathtaking view of the forest and to feel the bridge slightly swayed is fun and experience one can never forget.
My verdict….. The Langkawi Cable Car ride is a value for money and one should never miss if you visit Langkawi. Enjoy the fresh air, awesome view, trill and stunning sunset from Gunung Mat Chinchang. Its fun all the way!
