Did you know that this Putrajaya Wetland is the largest man-made wetland in Malaysia? It comprises of 138 hectares of Wetland Park and 197 hectares of wetland area. Similar to natural wetland that is like the planet’s kidney, this man-made one also serves as Putrajaya’s “kidney”. It ensures the suitability of the waters of Putrajaya Lake to be used by humans for recreational activities.
whatever found in the wetlands, you can find them here too
