Putrajaya [ Day Trip ]

Putrajaya is a city in Malaysia, south of Kuala Lumpur. It’s known for its late-20th-century architecture including the Putra Mosque, made from rose-coloured granite with a pink dome. Nearby is the immense, green-domed Perdana Putra, which contains the prime minister’s office complex. The 3-tiered Putra Bridge is inspired by Iranian architecture, with 4 minaret-type piers overlooking the man-made Putrajaya Lake.

Putrajaya is the seat of the Prime Minister's Office and the Federal Court of Justice. It is an hour's drive from Kuala Lumpur city centre. The subway service in Putrajaya is not so developed. Travelling Putrajaya by car is the best choice~ Don't look at a small town, it actually hides many big beadings that have been forgotten by tourists!
