The vast man-made Putrajaya Lake
is the city�s centre-piece that spreads over 400 hectares, a blue watery
expanse which blends across the different precincts. For the best views
of Putrajaya, take a cruise around the lake.
Through this meandering lake visitors can take a leisurely lake cruise
to see the many sights and landmarks from e unique perspective - with
wind in your hair and the light spray of water turns the cruise into an
experience no one should miss.
 The
Cruise
There are two routes used alternately, depending on seasons or water
level. One heads towards the wetlands from the jetty at
Putra Bridge,
offering sights of Putra Mosque,
Perdana Putra, Kelab Tasik Putrajaya,
Istana Melawati and
Seri Perdana Complex.
The second moves south along the Boulevard pass buildings like PjH
Tower, Ministry of Finance,
Perbadanan Putrajaya Complex and Perdana
Leadership Foundation. The south-bound cruise also makes a stop at the
towering Millennium Monument.
The Boats
The lake cruise services offered allows visitors to choose from the two
different modes offered - by passenger cruise boat or the gondola like
vessels designed after the local Malay traditional perahu.
Belimbing Passenger Cruise Boat - a fully air-conditioned cruise boat
that seats 76 passengers comfortably and allows an unbridled view
through its wrap-around glass windows.
Dondang Sayang Perahu - The gondola like perahu offers a more intimate
ride and a more romantic way to see Putrajaya. These open-air vessels
come in 2 types � the Payang with a 4 seat and the Kolek with a 6 seater

The rides take about 30 minutes and starts from 12 noon on weekdays and
