About This Activity
Putrajaya, also known as the World’s first Intelligent Garden City, is a trendy and sophisticated location for the country’s central Government. Here, we see a convergence of the past, present and future of heritage, design and technology.
The city’s masterplan is designed along an axial tangent which runs from the northeast to southeast with gently undulating terrain. Lush greenery and botanical gardens are spread across the landscape, crisscrossed by large bodies of water and wetlands. Five confluences meet at the north, forming a main waterway, the Putrajaya Lake, which flows across the city area.
Futuristic yet charmingly rustic structures and architecture share space in an orderly fashion on 4,581 hectares of land. This combination evokes a ‘resort feel’, lending to a refreshing environment. A truly peaceful yet remarkable tour not to be missed.
