## Editorial notes

Maha Tower is a 138-metre waterfront landmark in Langkawi City (Kuah), positioned as the island’s new leisure and business hub beside the Andaman Sea. Visitors ride to the Sky Lounge on Level 18 and the Sky Deck on Level 33 for tilted glass windows, a glass-floor section and wide views over Kuah, the archipelago and the sea.

The esplanade below layers waterfront retail, dining terraces and Maha Square events — with further hotel, marina and lifestyle components in the wider masterplan. The tower sits near Kuah Jetty, roughly 18 minutes from Langkawi International Airport by road.
