Putrajaya is Malaysia's meticulously planned federal administrative capital, designed to alleviate congestion in Kuala Lumpur. Visitors are struck by its wide boulevards, futuristic bridges, and grand government buildings set around a scenic man-made lake. The city's layout emphasizes green spaces and pedestrian pathways, making it pleasant for walking or cycling. Key sights include the Prime Minister's Office, the Putra Mosque, and the sprawling Putra Square. The area offers a calm, orderly contrast to the bustling capital, with opportunities for boat rides on the lake and visits to the nearby botanical gardens.
