Masjid Putra Putrajaya Malaysia. No matter where you go in Putrajaya, you are sure to catch a glimpse of the iconic Putra Mosque. Its pink color and modern architecture are unique and it is next to the lake with a great view and can be seen from many angles.
The building is adorned with a unique hue of pink, ranging from the various domes in a deeper shade than the rest of the building. When viewed up close, it is quite pleasant to the eye, but when seen from afar, particularly on Putra Bridge, the beauty of its backdrop and the different-sized domes become even more striking.

This Mosque is huge and stunningly beautiful in Malaysia, easily distinguishable by its pink color. I really appreciate that it allows non-Muslims to enter and take photos inside and its surroundings. The location is quite unique, offering a pleasant view for those who take a walk outside.
Non-muslims are welcome at this mosque and those who do not conform to the dress code can obtain appropriate attire. Women who do not wear the headscarf or have sleeveless tops can receive a robe (with head cover) at no cost.
If you need a guide, Putra Mosque provides a guided tour too. In this sense, you can know more details about Putra Mosque or maybe the worship through the guided tour. Free leaflets in English and other languages are available.
Modeled after the Persian Islamic architecture of the Safavid period and incorporating Malaysian, Persian, and Arab-Islamic architectural designs, the Putra Mosque features elements derived from other Muslim cultures.
Twelve columns support the main dome, which is 36 meters in diameter, making the Prayer Hall simple and elegant.
The exteriors and interiors of it boast marvelous architecture.
The area surrounding the mosque is very picturesque as well. The Prime Minister’s palace, the bridge opposite, and the promenade beside the river. Do take a walk along the bridge and the surrounding buildings. The best time to visit Masjid Putra Putrajaya Malaysia would be in the evenings.
