Latest Lahore hotel reviews
The Walled City, also known as Old Lahore, is the area that was fortified during the Mughal period. The wall was originally pierced by 13 gates, but today only 6 of these remain.
We found the Delhi Gate to be the best entrance, and from there found our way through the narrow winding alleys to the Fort. The Old City is an incredibly interesting place to wander around. I am now kicking myself that we didn't take any photos, but I think we were just too distracted at the time by all the tiny shops and chickens in cages etc. It is quite easy to get lost there though!
