1. The first stop is one of seven bridges in Putrajaya, which is the most elegant. The 240m cable bridge features a futuristic design borrowing the shape of a sailing ship. The Seri Wawasan Bridge is visible from many vantage points of the city.

   15 Min.

2. The Putrajaya Lake is a lake located at the centre of Putrajaya, Malaysia. This 650 hectares man-made lake is designed to act as a natural cooling system for the city and also for recreation, fishing, water sports and water transport.

3. Rose-tinted granite gives the Putra Mosque its iconic pink hue, an elegance that reflects as remarkably on the inside as it does on the outside. Built by the lake in 1997, the mosque can accommodate up to 15,000 worshippers. Visitors would stop by for photographs with this sophisticated landmark, which drew inspiration from Malay and Middle Eastern influences.

   15 Min.

4. This imposing building stands atop the main hill in Putrajaya, catching eyes with its palatial-style green dome and stone walls. Featuring a blend of Islamic and modern architecture, the office complex is where ministers and higher officials work. It is not open to visitors, but you can still admire its grandeur from the outside.

   15 Min.

5. One of the best ways to see the city's sights is by taking a 45 minute daytime or evening sightseeing cruise on a comfortable air-conditioned 76 seater cruise boat. Gondola-style boat rides are also available.

7. The Iron Mosque (or Tunku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque) is another architectural wonder worth checking out. Constructed primarily from steel, “wire mesh” architecture draws inspiration from Chinese and German designs. Unlike other mosques in Malaysia, there is no minaret which is used to call for prayers. From afar, it looks like it is made of metal or glass.

   15 Min.

8. Designed in 2005 to usher in the new millennium, this is the first monument to be built in Putrajaya. The walkway twirling around the monument illustrates the history of Malaysia, the panels describing significant events in the country. There is a time capsule at the base of the monument which will be opened in 2020. As you move up along the ramps of the Millennium Monument, you can see sweeping views of the waterfront.

   15 Min.

9. Istana Melawati is the second national palace of Malaysia's Yang di-Pertuan Agong in Putrajaya after the Istana Negara in Kuala Lumpur. It serves as a royal retreat for the Yang di-Pertuan Agong.

   Vorbeifahrt

10. The Moroccan Pavilion deserves five stars for Instaworthiness, if such a rating exists. Built to symbolise the diplomatic ties between the two governments, the stunning architecture and delicate craftsmanship bear resemblance to the villages and imperial cities of Morocco.

About Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysias pulsierende Hauptstadt: Die Petronas Towers überragen malaiische, chinesische und indische Viertel und berühmtes Streetfood.

Die Zwillingstürme der Petronas Towers, durch eine Skybridge verbunden, prägen die Skyline, zu ihren Füßen ein gestalteter Park mit Fontänen. Der KL Tower bietet von seinem bewaldeten Hügel eine andere Aussicht, und der Merdeka-Platz, auf dem bei der Unabhängigkeit die Nationalflagge gehisst wurde, wird vom maurisch anmutenden Sultan-Abdul-Samad-Gebäude gerahmt.

Top-ranked sights in Kuala Lumpur: National Mosque of Malaysia (Masjid Negara), Thean Hou Temple, Kuala Lumpur Chinatown.
