If you want to walk around inside the mosque, then ... you will be disappointed. They only allow you to see from the main door to about 10 steps more. The rest is reserved for prayer. You can walk around to see the lake and bridge.
Taking photos inside need to be very respectful, no crazy poses allow.

We went on a private tour to Putrajaya which was about 40 minutes from central Kuala Lumpur and much closer to the airport.
The pink mosque was actually rose tinted granite and completed in 1999. The color pink represented peace and love.
The mosque was on the edge of a man made lake which added to the charm.
Our guide asked if we wanted to go inside the mosque and we said yes. We have been to mosques in Casablanca and Marrakech and they were stunningly beautiful.
As a female, I was required to fill out a form as to my name and where I lived and my email which I wrote down an old address. Even though I had a long sleeve shirt and long pants, I was required to put on a long red robe with a hood and was told to keep the robe closed the entire time. All women wore these robes no matter what they wore. We also had to remove our shoes to walk into the mosque.
15,000 people can fit inside the mosque to pray.
I was rather surprised that in comparison, this mosque was not ornate inside rather the beauty was outside.

Traveling to Kuala Lumpur and was a must visit place in Putrajaya. The Putra Mosque, known as pinkish masjid, is located close to Prime minister office. It is located on a beautiful lake. During our visit we were allowed inside and could take all the pictures we wanted. Non Muslim allowed to visit this place but you must dress appropriately. Definitely worth a visit.

Photographer or not, this location has one of the best spots for sunrise. The reflection of the mosque in the lake against the orange sky reminds us that we should not be counter the number of breathes we take. Instead, we should bask in the moments that takes our breathe away.

For many, the pink mosque is the only reason of visiting Putrajaya. While Malaysia's de jure capital definitely has more to offer, Putra Mosque is indeed impressive and interesting. The fairy tale-like pink domes and minaret form a surreal landscape. Interior is even more remarkable. Do check the schedule as tourists are only allowed outside prayer time. Free robe is available.

The Masjid is absolutely beautiful inside and on the outside.
It felt so peaceful being in and around the Masjid.
I went to the Masjid for Jummah (Friday prayers).
The sound of the Azaan was beautiful, Mashallah.
They had cover up clothes for women if anyone needed them.
I would definitely recommend a visit to this beautiful Masjid.

This is the major attraction of the city along with the Prime Minister's office and river cruise.
Transport: From KL, you can hire a taxi which will take around 30 mins to 1 hour depending on traffic. Taxi will cost around 40 RM for one way journey or you can hire by hour (35-40 RM per hour). The cheapest alternate is taking Bus from Pasar Sani (Bus number E1, from Platform F other side of the lake from Pasar Sani LRT station) which will cost 3.5 RM only. However the buses are regular city services and not luxury ones. Also on weekends the frequency is very low, sometimes have to wait an hour. A mid-range solution would be taking KLIA Transit trains from KL Sentral (9.5 RM) or Bandar Tasik (4.8 RM) to Putra Sentral. In either cases (Bus or train), you should consider an additional Taxi fare (11.5 RM if you take coupon taxi) from the station to the Mosque (or very rare public bus or 2 times tourism bus on weekends only).
What to See: Both interior and outside design are very nice. Also check the veranda like places on the far left and far right of the mosque where you can get a nice view of Putra Bridge and Prime Ministers palace over the lake.
Nearby: The huge and beautiful prime minister's office is just next door to the Mosque. Though they stop public visit inside, you can still take some nice pictures from outside. If you have time, you can take 45 mins River Cruise (50 RM) starts from the Putra Pier near the Mosque.
Take Note: Do not wear shorts etc. to enter the mosque. For woman, if you don't dress up properly (in islamic way), you have to wear a pink gown provided by the Mosque (for free). If you visit the place around noon, better to take an umbrella with you because the humidity and the blazing sun is going to hurt you for sure.

How far is the mosque from kulalumpar (traders hotel)
Written 20 January 2019
It's around 20mins by KLIA transit from KL Sentral to Putrajaya for RM14, then you can take taxi or there is a bus u can take for RM10 for 3 bus trips. It's a lovely place to visit. If you walk up the park area to the right side of the government buildings, there are nice places to eat.

How much time you would say it takes to see the mosque? 30 mins? An hour? Thanks!
Written 9 January 2019
Hi, this depends on your interest as there is more to see than just the mosque so I would say an hour rather than 30 minutes plus that will give ou time to just reflect and take in the beauty of what you have seen
