Putrajaya, very impressive (Malaysia)


We drove past Putrajaya, the new seat of Malaysian government. The city has very impressive buildings - a mix of Islamic and traditional Malay architecture. There is also an artificial lake and couple of monster bridges.

The annual meeting of the OIC (organisation of Islamic countries) was happening while we were there so the security was tight with alert but friendly police all around.

This convention centre was where the OIC meeting was happening. I call it the Ultraman building. From a distance the building looks like Ultraman.
