Putrajaya Photo Outing

Putrajaya is not only well known as a tourist attraction but also a good photography spot for photo bug like us. Putrajaya is built and designed as the administrative centre of Malaysia with nice buildings, gardens and bridges for fantastic photo shooting.

One fine Saturday we decided to go to Putrajaya for photography. Going into Putrajaya is easy, but once we are in Putrajaya we were lost. Signages are everywhere, but not sure if it is because we are too dumb to read the road signs or because of the misleading signs that lead us to “merry-go round’.

After some joyride, we finally decided to just follow the building landmarks instead……..ah, alas….we spotted a sign pointing to “Putrajaya Lake Club” and quickly made a turn in. It happened there was a wedding ceremony at the club on that day (meaning most of the parking lots were taken off). Soon after squeezing our car in a spot, we marched into the club and hunt for great view. We found a good spot at a tower to shoot the Perdana Putra and Putra Mosque.

After about over an hour here, we headed to Taman Botani (Botanical Garden). This was not difficult to find as it is indicated on the road sign.

We were in Putrajaya for almost 3 hours. My camera already ran out of battery and so we had to leave. We will definitely come back again for more shootings.
