The only reason this exhibit warrants an entry is to warn Langkawi visitors that the Anna & The King Gallery has been dismantled. Which is actually an unfortunate loss considering the fact that it was actually a pretty good attraction. Displaying props and costumes from the 1999 film starring Jodie Foster – parts of which were shot at Pantai Kok – the maintenance costs of this attraction surpassed its novelty and authorities dismantled the set last year.

To cut a long story short, falconry involves the use of trained birds of prey in sport or for game hunting. Animal Adventures in the Oriental Village has a falconry exhibit – featuring two local varieties of eagles – where you’ll get to take a look at some of Langkawi’s famous raptors.
