[2025 Langkawi Attraction] Travel Guide for Craft Cultural Complex (Updated Jul)

I have been to Langkawi few times but never visit Langkawi Craft Complex. Our flight has been delayed so we decide to go to Langkawi Craft Complex. I thought it will be a boring tour. Suprisingly, this place is so amazing and underrated. The building is so huge ! They have few sections. My favourite one is Craft Revolution Galery. They gather all idea of craft revolution from Malaysian Artist. They did great job ! The entrance fee is FREE ! The last section will be Batik section. You can see a lot of amazing work from our local artist. You can see how they color the batik there. You also can buy their artwork. The price is affordable. You should try to color batik. Its only RM10. Overall, such amazing experience with my kids. Somehow, its a bit scary to bring them at craft revolution section because there are lots of fragile art there. #awesomepic #travelwithkids #langkawiisland #timetotravel #langkawicraftcomplex
