Kedah |
The Rice Bowl of Malaysia |
Primarily agricultural, Kedah offers a pleasant rural landscape which can take on different hues depending on the seasons of the padi (rice).
The countryside is greenest when the newly planted padi is sprouting, turns a golden yellow at harvest time and turns into a brown, earthy hue after the harvest.
It appears that much may lie hidden under the rolling plains of rice, for Kedah was once the cradle of an ancient civilization, the threads of which are just beginning to emerge from slow excavations of various historical sites found in the state.
Alor Setar is the capital of Kedah and the seat of government and royalty. It is also the main commercial centre of the state. Langkawi, the most well-known cluster of islands on the peninsula, and a huge tourist draw, falls under Kedah's jurisdiction. |
