Sights in Putrajaya Precinct 3

Dataran Putrajaya
The Dataran Putrajaya is flanked by the Putrajaya Holdings Complex and the Palace of Justice.

Putrajaya Holdings Complex (Kompleks Perbadanan Putrajaya)
I cannot pin down which futuristic building the Putrajaya Holdings Complex is supposed to resemble - perhaps I should just give them credit for being totally original here. Anyway, the Putrajaya Holdings Complex is supposed to be a contemporary interpretation of traditional Islamic architecture. The main feature of this building is the Gateway or Gerbang with a public viewing deck on the top most level providing a panoramic view of the city skyline that includes the Palace of Justice and the Grand Mosque. The gateway will also provide a vantage point during parades.

Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Bahagian Hal Ehwal Undang Undang
I had earlier mistaken this for a mosque, but was advised by someone at Perbadanan Putrajaya that this is part of the Jabatan Perdana Menteri.

Palace of Justice (Kompleks Kehakiman dan Mahkamah)
And then we come to another tropical Taj Mahal. The Palace of Justice is an elegant edifice that houses the judicial department in a five-storey administration building, and the courts in a two-storey annexed building. In total, the Palace of Justice occupies about 71,913 square meters of gross floor area. The internal spaces houses six Courts of Appeals and two Federal Courts and 20 Judges' Chambers. Space is also provided for a Banquet Hall, Judges' Conference Hall, Library, Museum, and Cafeteria. Don't get me wrong, I like this building, I think it is beautiful, but I've seen the Taj Mahal and the Palace of Justice looks like a plastic replica in comparison.

About this website



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
