Putrajaya is the place in Kuala Lumpur where the tourist will find all the upcoming federal administrative capital buildings. They are innovatively designed and are in harmony with the surroundings. Some of the magnificent structures include the Putra Mosque, the Putra Square, the Prime Minister’s Office and Residence, the Palace of Justice, and the Department Of Civil Aviation. Adjoining all of these is the palace where the Sultan stays. The main bridge is like the Khaju Bridge in Estahan, Iran. Its upper level forms a part of the boulevard. The huge three-deck bridge provides access to vehicles, monorails and pedestrians alike. Apart from linking the Precinct 1 and Precinct 2, this Bridge has been designed to be a special feature of Putrajaya. The piers accommodate exemplary dining restaurants within the support provided by the main pillars. The Malay name of this bridge is Jambatan Putra and was designed by the architect Perbadanan Putrajaya as well as constructed by him. It crosses the Putrajaya Lake which is all of 650 ha and is man-made. The water body was created to act as a natural cooling system to the city as also for recreation, fishing, water sports and water transport.
