About Lahore
Sightseeing
Lahore is the capital of the Pakistan's province of Punjab and is the second largest and one of the most beautiful cities in Pakistan. Known as the Heart of Pakistan due to its historical importance in the creation of Pakistan, Lahore is also often called the City of Gardens.
Lahore is the 5th largest city in South Asia and the 23rd largest city in the world with a population of over 10 million.
The Lahore fort was initially constructed in 1566 AD by the Mughal Emperor Akbar, on the ruins of a mud fort which existed as early as 1021 AD. The Fort is rectangular and is located in the north western corner of Lahore, adjacent to the Walled City. It has 13 gates. The main gates are located alongside the centre of the western and eastern walls. Located centrally in the city of Lahore, the Lahore Fort is a magnificent fortified palace complex. Its elaborate Mughal architecture is straight out of a storybook of the Mysterious East. The impressive twin-domed entrance leads into elaborately decorated courtyards and pavilions with water features, some with still intact sumptuous wall decorations of inlaid semiprecious stones and painted designs. It's large enough to allow several elephants carrying members of the royal family to enter at one time. There are a flight of stone steps specially built for ceremonial elephant processions.
The Badshahi Mosque or the ‘Emperor’s Mosque’, was built in 1673 by the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb in Lahore, Pakistan. It is one of the city’s best known landmarks, and a major tourist attraction epitomizing the beauty and grandeur of the Mughal era. Capable of accommodating over 55,000 worshipers, it is the second largest mosque in Pakistan, after the Faisal Mosque in Islamabad. The architecture and design of the Badshahi Masjid is like the Jama Masjid in Delhi, India, which was built in 1648 by Aurangzeb’s father and predecessor, emperor Shah Jahan.
Lahore Museum is located in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan, It was established in 1894 and is one of the major museums of South Asia. Lahore Museum is also known as Central Museum,The Museum has a collection of musical instruments, ancient jewellery, textiles, pottery and armoury. There are relics from the Graeco-Bactrian times as well as well as some Tibetan and Nepalese work.
