seri wawasan bridge

A sail-shaped cable bridge, lit in colour at night, and a lakeside walk to Presint 8.

Best time
Any time of year. Late afternoon into early evening is best: cooler, softer light, then the bridge is lit up in changing colours after dark. There's no shelter on the deck in a storm.
How long
2–3 hours
Getting there
About 30–40 minutes' drive from KL via MEX. The MRT Putrajaya Line and the KLIA Transit stop at Putrajaya Sentral, about 10 minutes away by Grab.

Seri Wawasan is the white cable bridge that looks like a ship under sail, Putrajaya's postcard shot, linking the government core in Presint 2 with Presint 8 across the lake. Come in the late afternoon, walk across, watch the lights come on, and finish with dinner at the Presint 8 food court.

  • The Iron Mosque and the Millennium Monument are a short walk away on the Presint 2 side.
