Putrajaya: Malaysia's Other Capital City

Merry Christmas 2009! Now continuing with my series of posts from my travels in Malaysia last year...

On May 11, 2008 after our day trip to Melaka the day before, we went on another day trip to Putrajaya, the federal administrative centre of Malaysia, first stopping at the Royal Selangor Pewter museum on the way there.

Royal Selangor is a famous Malaysian brand in pewter goods and their products make excellent gifts. Another reason for going to the museum was to buy souvenirs at their factory store for back home at a fraction of the price that they sell overseas because everything was priced in Malaysian currency.

Entering the museum, we see a massive model of the modern icon of Malaysia, the Petronas Twin Towers.
