7 of the World's Newest Cities

To ease the pressure of overcrowding in Kuala Lumpur, the Malaysian government decided to create a new administrative capital in 1995.

Putrajaya sits less than an hour's drive from Kuala Lumpur and presents a fascinating combination of sustainability, modern urban planning, and exquisite Islamic architecture. Monuments such as the sprawling Pedrana Putra (the prime minister's office), the pink-painted Putra Mosque, and the steel-and-glass Iron Mosque dominate Putrajaya's modern skyline. In between, parks and gardens provide natural habitats for hundreds of wildlife species. The marshes, forests, and ponds of Putrajaya Wetlands Park alone are home to 100 bird species, and Putrajaya Botanical Garden dazzles with hundreds of tropical plants.
