Completed in 1999 when the federal administrative centre moved from Kuala Lumpur, the building is noted for its distinctive green dome, Islamic-Mogul and Malay architectural influences, and stone-clad facades. Overlooking Putrajaya Lake and Putra Square, it serves as the administrative centre of the federal government and is a prominent landmark for exterior viewing and photography.

Visitors can expect to view the exterior of a large hilltop government complex with a prominent green dome, arched windows, and stone facades overlooking Putrajaya Lake and Putra Square. The building is not open to the general public for interior tours; visits are limited to exterior sightseeing and photography from the square, surrounding roads, and lake viewpoints. The setting includes landscaped grounds, ceremonial square, and views toward Putra Mosque and the lake.

Perdana Putra was completed in 1999 as part of the development of Putrajaya as Malaysia's federal administrative centre, with government functions relocating from Kuala Lumpur. Construction began in the mid-1990s. The design incorporates Islamic, Malay and Mogul architectural influences and the building has since housed the Prime Minister's Office, including the Prime Minister's office, Deputy Prime Minister's office and meeting facilities.

The building is a national administrative landmark and symbol of Putrajaya as a planned administrative capital. Its architecture reflects Islamic and Malay cultural motifs and it forms the focal point of the ceremonial axis with Putra Square, Putra Mosque and Putrajaya Lake, frequently visited for its architectural and civic significance.
