Nov 16, 2004 Putrajaya is the new capital of Malaysia, as far as politics go; it's also where the Putra Mosque is located. Putrajaya is located about 40 minutes outside of Kuala Lumpur, near to the airport. You can get here via public transport, or hire a driver for the day. We hired a driver for our afternoon journey, and were very glad we did, because we wanted to look around, and take pictures from many different locations, and we really needed the car. I recommend hiring a driver. These buildings will take your breath away. The Prime Ministers Office is stunning. His home is also beautiful. There are other buildings as well that are very impressive, as well as some bridges and other architecture. Even the street lights are beautiful. But the mosque... it will blow you away. If you are really lucky, or plan really well, you may manage to be there when the call to prayer to happening over the loudspeakers. It's an amazing experience in life. Please, don't miss this experience. I hope you love it as much as I did.  Part of the list Malaysia

It's definitely… Alice in Wonderland |

I was not able… Meeting TBs in Malaysia |

On our final day in Malaysia, we hired a driver for the afternoon to take us to Putrajaya. Before we left, however, we went to inside the Petronas Twin Towers. Because we were there during Ramadan, the skywalk was closed, and we couldn't go up; but we did walk around the main shopping area. It's a very… The Petronas Twin Towers, and Putrajaya |

Another day I decided to take a trip out to Putrajaya. I had seen a lot of pics of the place online, and it looked beautiful. I really enjoy Islamic architectur, so I decided that this would be the perfect place. The taxi driver that I hired to take me out there was a really… Kuala Lumpur Madness |
