Laman Padi (Rice
Garden) which is located on the northern section of
Pantai Cenang in Mukim Kedawang, is a place of interest
in Langkawi where visitors can update their knowledge in all
aspects of rice farming. Kedah, also known as the "Rice
Bowl of Malaysia", is the most proper place to
learn such knowledge since vast stretches of rice fields
dominate its panoramic landscape and this is the reason
that this Padi Museum (Paddy Museum) is located in this state. Tourists
will be delighted with the chance given to them to learn
more about the process involved in the cultivation of padi.
Tourists will be
given the unique opportunity to have first-hand
experience in learning the daily activities in the paddy
fields and there are charts, photographs and artifacts
in the museum as well to give them a better
understanding. There is a roof top garden with fragrant
padi plots and a rice farm for visitors to participate
in padi planting activities. Other attractions found
here at this tourist attraction are a herbal garden,
souvenir and handicrafts stalls besides the interesting
rice-based food demonstrations, festivals and theme
exhibitions. This is the best place to learn about rice
agriculture
Opening times:
10.00am to 6.00pm daily
