As one of the largest man-made freshwater wetlands in the tropics, the Putrajaya Wetlands is made up of the Wetlands Park (138 hectares) and the wetland areas (1,977 hectares). It is also recognised by UNESCO as an Ecohydrology Demonstration Site, a place where researchers can observe the interactions between water and the ecosystems. The wetlands has a high rate of biodiversity due to its unique ecosystem. The park offers itself as a place for visitors to rest their eyes on greeneries and take in a breath of fresh clean air, a treat being so near to the concrete jungle of Kuala Lumpur. It is also a popular spot for birdwatching, recreational activities, fishing and water sports. Due to its surroundings, more than 100 species have been spotted around the Wetlands Park, making it a great place for birdwatching. Some of the birds that can be spotted here are Purple Swamphen, Jungle Fowl, Painted Storks, Pelicans, Swans and the Buffy Fish Owls. Birdwatchers can climb up the 18 metre lookout tower located in the Wetlands Park for a bird's-eye view of the area and birds flying around it. Those who prefer to keep their feet on the ground can head to the flamingo pond and the swan lake for an up-close view of the beautiful birds. There are also nature trails and a plant nursery for visitors who are eager to explore the park, complete with a bike rental service for those who prefer to cycle. Plenty of outdoor space is also available as picnic areas for families look

The Nature Interpretation Centre is a mini-museum explaining how wetlands work and introducing the types of flora and fauna found in the park. If you go on a weekday you will probably have the place to yourself and indeed almost anytime park visitors are usually outnumbered by the gardening staff. At the main Information Centre you can rent a bike or a set of binoculars or take a tram ride round the park. There is a small fee for these services - entrance to the park itself is free. You should climb to the top of the look-out tower where you can get a good view of the whole area. Nearby is the flamingo pond which has sheltered areas for picnics. Other birds frequenting the wetlands include night herons, cattle egrets, purple herons, grey herons, black crown neck herons, painted storks, green herons and cinnamon bitterns. I often see herons perched on the lamp-posts outside Taman Wetlands, no doubt hoping to spot a tasty fish in the lake.
