In the heart of Malaysia, Putrajaya Lake lies like a tranquil mirror, reflecting the sky and drifting clouds. Rising gracefully from its shore is a soft pink silhouette—the city’s landmark and a romantic icon for travelers—the Putra Mosque, also known as the Pink Mosque.

Modeled after the Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca, Morocco, it covers 5.5 hectares and cost 10 million US dollars to build. Its grand dome and slender minaret glow warmly under the sun, mirrored perfectly in the lake like a still watercolor painting.

Inside, the dome is adorned with intricate Islamic motifs, where pink and gold intertwine to create an atmosphere majestic. Light streams through the arched windows, spilling across the carpet, and visitors instinctively soften their footsteps.

Some sit quietly by the lake to watch the sunset, while some others lift their cameras to capture the beauty of the architecture in shifting light. The Pink Mosque is more than a landmark—it is a serene pause for the soul.
