The good bilateral relations between Malaysia and China is celebrated at a peaceful garden within the administrative capital of the country.
The China-Malaysia Friendship Garden in Putrajaya commemorates the 40th anniversary of the diplomatic relationship between both countries.
Officially opened in 2015, it is situated at Anjung Floria – the same venue which hosts the annual Putrajaya Flower and Garden Festival (also known as Floria Putrajaya) – in Precinct 4.
Located next to the elegant Seri Saujana Bridge, this peaceful Chinese-style garden is definitely worth a visit. If not for the sights of beautiful blooms, then maybe for the sheer mischief of tricking your social media friends that you’re in China.
IT IS likely that Putrajaya will see a delayed silver jubilee celebration once again this year.
The administrative captial turned 25 on Aug 29,2020.
Putrajaya Corporation (PjC) had lined up several events last year to commemorate the milestone but almost everything was called off or postponed.
Former PjC president Datuk Aminuddin Hassim had said
people could look forward to a delayed celebration once the pandemic was over.
Among the highlights planned was the unveiling of a time capsule, by then prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad in 1995 at Taman Putra Perdana, Precinct 1.
The time capsule contains a number of official documents on the history of the city.
