road trip to Putrajaya

another road trip with TC and daisy... by the time we left for the trip and finally found our way to Putrajaya, it was evening and we missed the Putrajaya cruise boat.. yea, they have a boat bringing ppl along the putrajaya river/lakes... not too sure how much it costs but it would have been nice if we were earlier and managed to get on it....

anyway, here's some pics from our short trip... will definately go again...


here's the entrance of the main road to all the buildings with big/huge different architecture, it's a sight and a playground for photographers... as i said earlier on, we were there abit late so, couldn't really take much pics or spend much time looking around...
this road is also the road where u have merdeka celebrations, new year celebrations... just imagine the ppl that would have gathered there.... O_O
there's lots of buildings with different themes, and they're all government offices!!! u have to be there yourself to actually see how HUGE the buildings are and how they look.... even the mosque looks inviting! hahahah ironic!
guess what is the picture above? it's on the floor of a monument.... the dots are actually rain drops... yea, it started to drizzle when we were there.... if u have a "funny" mind... hahahah if not, nevermind, dun bother asking me what i meant... LOL
anyway, it's actually a layout of the location to the monument... the red dot is the "You are Here" sign...
this is the monument that i was talking about.... the pic with the "You are Here" is the map going towards this pencil looking like monument.... it's actually showing the journey of malaysia's success from the time the big guns where fighting for our independance till the current years... u have the the stories on how melaka became melaka... penang and kedah stories, Penang Free School and the rest of the states.... its like going back in your history books... if only we had this when i was still doing history in school.. i'm sure i would have scored better LOL!
(we did take some "funny" pics but, it's no nice to be put up here... LOL)

there's a few bridges and this is one bridge... i'm not sure which bridge is popularly used for advertisements on tv.. but i'm sure its one of these.... couldn't find a way to go on this bridge (the pic above) but manage to go on the bridge in the pics below....



we had problems coming to Putrajaya and we had problems leaving too!!! we were heading Pusat Bandar... but in the end, it brought us back to where all the buildings were.... signboards are not too very userfriendly.. so, have a street-wise fella in your car and u'll be out from there in no time... hahahah...

basically, putrajaya is a sad place to live, there's nothing to do... u have those buildings and Carrefour (or was it Tesco?)... and that's it...
