The Putra Mosque is the principal mosque of Putrajaya.  It was named after Malaysia's first Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al Haj. The mosque was built between 1997 and 1999. The mosque can accommodate up to 15,000 people at any one time.

Being Putrajaya’s most distinctive landmark, it is also one of the most modern mosques in the world. Modelled after the Persian Islamic architecture of the Safavid empire, its architecture incorporates Persian and Arab-Islamic designs.

The Putra Mosque faces the Putrajaya Lake and sited next to the Perdana Putra, which houses the Prime Minister's Office. Its basement wall is similar to the one in Morocco's King Hassan Mosque while its 116-metre minaret resembles that of the Sheikh Omar Mosque in Baghdad.

The pink dome of the Putra Mosque was constructed with rose-tinted granite and comprises three main functional areas - the prayer hall, the courtyard in Islamic architecture, also known as 'sahn' and the learning facilities and function rooms.
