Langkawi, often called Kedah’s gem, gets its name from the red-backed sea eagle that dominates the island’s skies. According to folklore, the term ‘Lang’ is derived from the Malay word ‘helang’, signifying Eagle. ‘Kawi’ comes from a word that means marble or reddish brown. A group of reddish-brown Eagles flying high in the sky adds to the legend and symbol of Langkawi. In Malay, ‘Dataran’ means square, leading us to English’s magnificent ‘Dataran Lang’ or Eagle Square.

It is slanted towards the northern part of Gunung Raya, the highest mountain peak in Langkawi. The waterfall is surrounded by intriguing rock formations and dense forest. The water of Durian Perangin is cool and refreshing which makes it a popular spot among locals for picnics or a quiet day away.
