Putrajaya, a hidden gem in the vicinity of Kuala Lumpur

If you are traveling to Kuala Lumpur, visit Putrajaya, the administrative capital of Malaysia. You can enjoy a quiet city view away from the complex Kuala Lumpur. You can easily tour Putrajaya by booking a daily taxi or taking a tour program after arriving at Putrajaya Station.
The most famous place in Putrajaya is the Pink Mosque. The entire mosque is pink, so it is great for taking pictures, and there is a separate photo spot when you come down to the lakeside. If you also come to the Pink Mosque, be sure to come down to the lakeside and take pictures. Only Koreans know about this spot, so just follow them.
Inside the Pink Mosque, according to Islamic law, men must wear long pants and women must wear separate clothing. It is hot, but the law must be followed, right? The clothes you must wear are red, so they go well with the Pink Mosque and photos.
The Prime Minister's Office is located next to the Pink Mosque. You cannot enter, but you can take pictures right in front of it, so since you are here, you must take a picture. It will be easy to think of it as the Blue House of Korea. The difference is that Islam is a country where there is a king and a prime minister rules.
There should be a flagpole in front of the Pink Mosque and the Prime Minister's Office. There are flagpoles everywhere, but they are quite large. I wanted to take a picture of the flagpole spread out, but I failed to take a picture because it was too large or the wind wasn't blowing. ㅠ..
As expected from the administrative capital, all of the buildings in Putrajaya are modern. However, as expected from an Islamic country, Islamic culture is incorporated. That's what makes it special, so if you pay attention to that when you tour, you'll be able to enjoy Putrajaya more easily. :)
