Highlights
- Seri Wawasan Bridge, Putrajaya - The first stop is one of seven bridges in Putrajaya, and it is the most elegant. This 240-meter cable bridge boasts a futuristic design inspired by a sailing ship. The Seri Wawasan Bridge can be seen from various vantage points throughout the city.
- Putrajaya Lake - Putrajaya Lake is a centrally located lake in Putrajaya, Malaysia. This 650-hectare man-made lake serves as a natural cooling system for the city and is also used for recreation, fishing, water sports, and water transport.
- Perdana Putra - This grand building sits atop the main hill in Putrajaya, drawing attention with its palatial-style green dome and stone walls. Combining Islamic and modern architecture, this office complex is where ministers and high-ranking officials work. Although it is not open to visitors, its grandeur can still be admired from the outside.
- Putra Mosque - The Putra Mosque’s iconic pink hue comes from its rose-tinted granite, reflecting elegance both inside and out. Built by the lake in 1997, the mosque can accommodate up to 15,000 worshippers. Visitors often stop by to take photographs of this sophisticated landmark, which draws inspiration from Malay and Middle Eastern influences.
- Seri Perdana - Seri Perdana is the official residence of the Prime Minister of Malaysia, located in Putrajaya.
- Masjid Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin (Masjid Besi) - The Iron Mosque, also known as the Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque, is another architectural marvel worth visiting. Constructed mainly from steel, its “wire mesh” architecture is inspired by Chinese and German designs. Unlike other mosques in Malaysia, it lacks a minaret for calling prayers. From a distance, it appears to be made of metal or glass.
- Millennium Monument - Designed in 2005 to welcome the new millennium, this is the first monument built in Putrajaya. The walkway spiraling around the monument illustrates Malaysia’s history, with panels describing significant events in the country. A time capsule at the base of the monument is set to be opened in 2020. As you ascend the ramps of the Millennium Monument, you can enjoy sweeping views of the waterfront.
- 172, Persiaran Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah - Istana Melawati is the second national palace of Malaysia’s Yang di-Pertuan Agong in Putrajaya, serving as a royal retreat after Istana Negara in Kuala Lumpur.
- Moroccan Pavilion Putrajaya - The Moroccan Pavilion deserves five stars for its Instagram-worthiness, if such a rating existed. Built to symbolize the diplomatic ties between the two governments, its stunning architecture and delicate craftsmanship resemble the villages and imperial cities of Morocco.
- Anjung Floria - Anjung Floria is a public park in Putrajaya, located in Precinct 4. It hosts an annual garden festival called Royal Floria Putrajaya, with a different theme each year. For example, the 2016 festival’s theme was “Magical World of Floria,” featuring chrysanthemums. It is also a beautiful spot for photography, with the China-Malaysia Friendship Garden being a particularly picturesque location.
- Agriculture Heritage Park - Visitors can sample fresh fruits and observe activities such as rubber tapping, latex collection, crop maintenance, and fruit preservation. Attractions include the Visitors’ Complex, an orchard, an herbs and spices track, a clonal rubber plot, and a viewing deck. The park also offers various agro-products for sale and organizes agro-based activities and programs year-round.
- Putrajaya International Convention Centre - The Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC) is one of Malaysia’s premier venues for meetings and conventions. Nestled in an oasis of green parks, lakes, and wetlands, it is a high-tech center for meetings of all types. The first convention center to receive the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Best Practices Award by ASEAN in 2007, it has since garnered many accolades, including the Best Brands in Services - Convention Centre Award by the Asia Pacific Brand Foundation (APBF) 2013-2014 and the International Quality Crown (IQC) Award 2014 in the Gold Category.
- Putrajaya Botanical Garden - The largest botanical garden in Malaysia, the Putrajaya Botanical Garden spans over 92 hectares. The park is divided into three sections: flowers, ornamental plants, and preservation/research purposes. The garden houses more than 700 species of flowering plants, including local plants and those from the Asia-Pacific and Africa regions. It also serves as a research center with a multi-purpose collection. Children will enjoy the vast collection of exotic flowers, and educators can explore many plant species at the research center.
- Taman Wawasan - A hidden gem! That’s what we felt on our first visit to Taman Wawasan Putrajaya. “Wawasan Park” is our direct translation, with “Wawasan” meaning vision. The garden was named in alignment with Malaysia’s “Vision 2020,” a goal for the country to become developed by 2020. The park is quite large, stretching from the boulevard on one end to the lakeside of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, flanking Lebuh Ehsan (Ehsan Avenue) on another. Still unsure of its size? A slow jog around the garden might take about an hour.

Great experience - It was difficult at first because I couldn't find the meeting point. But there were many cruise ships at the meeting point.
The trip and tour for me exclusively was great and exactly what I wanted. Great architecture, buildings, facts and my guide was very friendly and courteous and reliable. Thank you for the lovely trip,
