Floria Beach in Putrajaya is now open

Putrajaya is widely known as the administrative capital of Malaysia but it is also home to an array of tourist attractions.

Among the popular landmarks such as the Putra Mosque, Marina Putrajaya, Putrajaya Botanical Garden, now locals can even spend a day at the "beach", with its very own man made beach called Floria Beach.

The beach, which encompasses an area of 600 sqm, uses water from the nearby lake and is equipped with a sandy area as well.

Floria beach is part of the Putrajaya Corporation's efforts to upgrade the Floria area which is typically quiet due to lack of visitors.
