Half-Day Trip to Putrajaya
Description
After being picked up from your hotel in Kuala Lumpur at 9:30 pm, you'll set off on your route to Putrajaya, located just 35 minutes from the Malaysian capital. The planned city was established in the mid-1990s as the new seat of government, due to overcrowding in the capital itself, and it's now home to most of the country's governmental ministries.
The beautiful Lake Putrajaya, where you'll make your first stop, is located in the heart of the city, where we'll hop on a traditional boat for a relaxing ride to enjoy the beautiful and scenic surroundings.
On the banks of this expansive body of water, you'll find the majestic Putra Mosque. Admire the distinct Islamic artwork of its exterior, whose geometrical shapes will leave you mesmerised. The enormous temple, constructed from rose-tinted granite and topped with a large pink dome, can house up to 15,000 people, and its minaret, at 380 feet (116 m) in height, is one of the tallest in the world.
Next to the mosque, you'll see Perdana Putra: the Malaysian Prime Minister's office complex. Discover how its colossal turquoise cupolas were built as you take in the sight of its magnificent façade.
Finally, you'll finish your half-day tour of Putrajaya and head back to Kuala Lumpur via the Putra Bridge, one of Malaysia's most spectacular feats of engineering.
Lastly, we'll drop you back off at your hotel at around 1:30 pm.
