Kampung Padang Masirat
Lying to the north-east is Padang Matsirat, or Field of Burnt Rice. Once the island's granary, the village head ordered it destroyed during the Siamese invasion of 1821. It is said that remnants of burnt rice can still be found after a downpour and that these are a potent medical treatment. This is also the location of the airport and the The Mahsuri International Exhibition Centre, where the biennial Langkawi Maritime and Aerospace Exhibition (LIMA) is held.
