Putra Mosque

The pink-domed Putra Mosque is constructed with rose-tinted granite and consists of three main functional areas – the prayer hall, the Sahn, or courtyard, and various learning facilities and function rooms. With its 116-metre minaret and the 36-metre diameter composite dome, the Putra Mosque can accommodate up to 15,000 worshippers.

Named after the first Prime Minister of Malaysia, the late Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj, Masjid Putra or Putra Mosque is the principal mosque and one of the main landmarks in Putrajaya. Located next to Perdana Putra and facing Putrajaya Lake, construction of the mosque was completed on 1 September 1999 at a cost of RM250 million by Kumpulan Senireka Sdn.
