Time Capsule



This is an abstract view of the "Mercu Tanda" or Putrajaya Landmark. It is located in Putra Perdana Park (which happens to be the highest point in Precinct 1 of Putrajaya, Malaysia). The Putrajaya Landmark symbolises the beginnings of Putrajaya with its time capsule structure. Its design is a combination of a high-technology theme and the use of contemporary and traditional motifs. Plaza Mercu or Landmark Plaza, is landscaped with trees and water fountains; The Perdana Mall are pedestrian walkways linking the Landmark and Entrance Plaza to Cascade Plaza, Fragrant Garden, gazebos and pergolas.

Putra Perdana Park was opened to the public in July 2001. It is located at the highest point in Precinct 1, and spreads over 70 hectres. This unique vantage point makes it one of the best place to enjoy a panoramic view of Putrajaya. It is surrounded by Persiaran Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah and acts as an intermediator between the natural domains to the North and the Government and Commercial domains to the South and East.

Great capture. I love the perspective. The blue sky in the top right adds dramatically to it.

Who are you?

Hahah!

Interesting. Very interesting.

Where do you live? Putrajaya I suppose?

I am me. ;)

No I don't live in Putrajaya. I actually dislike Putrajaya. It's DEAD! No 7-Eleven. No mamak. No tai-chow. No mini-market. That place is unliveable. Where in Putrajaya can I get a haircut?
