I didn't go to Putrajaya, but I think I saw it at the distance, either on the way from the airport or when travelling to Melaka. Is that possible?
Have a great weekend, Emily

I like the angle of your shot and the sky.
"Moorish" architecture is facsinating in it's complexity of detail.

A very beautiful mosque. I wish we will have a nice mosque here one day.

I love the intricate design on the dome structure.

I think I drove by Putrajaya on the way to Shah Alam to visit my friend during my visiting to KL earlier this month.
