Putra Mosque is the main mosque of the Federal Territory, one of the top Putrajaya attractions. Opened to the public in 1999, it is located near the current Prime Minister’s office, Putra Square, and Putrajaya Lake. The architecture of the Putra Mosque is eye-catching, including the pink dome, minarets and interior patterns. The mosque was built using rose-tinted granite. Its minarets, on the other hand, are influenced by the design of Iraq’s Sheikh Omar Mosque. The minarets are among the tallest in the region. There are three main functional areas throughout the Putra Mosque complex: the function rooms and learning facilities, the prayer hall, and the Sahn (courtyard). At any time, the mosque can accommodate up to 15,000 worshippers.

A good place to learn more about the flags of each state in Malaysia is by visiting Putra Square. You will find it across from the Prime Minister’s office complex. Not only is it one of the country’s main landmarks, but it’s also a symbol of unity. Putra Square is divided into 11 segments in a pattern of an 11-point star, which represents the states of Malaya when the country gained its independence. Meanwhile, the inner circle has a 13-point star representing Malaysia’s 13 states today. The square is quite spacious and is used for various purposes. Among these are national-level festivals as well as an assembly point for civil servants.

The current Yang di-Pertuan Agong (Malaysia’s monarch) has his own palace in the administrative city. Istana Melawati is not an official palace but a second palace, much like a royal retreat for the Agong. Istana Melawati is unique because it’s styled like a resort. It comprises four major components: the Administrative Block, Royal Wing, Banquet Wing, and Reception Wing. You will notice that at the centre and side of the Istana Melawati, there are three tall towers with prominent structures. The towers signify old guard towers, normally found in medieval Malay palaces. The main feature of the palace is its Royal Wing. It has a throne room, bedroom, main meeting room, resting room, gallery, banquet room, guest house, offices, kitchen, and swimming pool.

The Mercu Tanda Putrajaya, aka the Putrajaya Landmark, stands tall in the middle of the garden, surrounded by a herb garden, a flower garden, and a jogging track.

Undoubtedly one of the must-see Putrajaya attractions is the Seri Gemilang Bridge. Categorised as a ceremonial bridge, it is the main landmark of the Federal Territory when visitors enter from the south entrance. In addition to being a perfect photo-taking spot, it is a great place to go for a walk with your loved ones. You can stand by the lake and enjoy the stunning scenery, watch the boats pass by, or have a simple picnic. While the view is already very pretty during the day, you’ll be even more captivated at night. When the yellow lights are on, the extraordinary architecture of the bridge, and the reflection of the lake make you feel like you’re somewhere in Europe.
