I really enjoyed the character of Lahore old city. The back alley feeling roads watching the daily going abouts of people in this city which makes it so special. I also enjoyed going through the markets which sell all kinds of things - giving an insight into what the average Pakistani might use or eat in everyday life. I will definately return to Pakistan in the future as it holds a special place in my heart!
I really feel nostalgic for having some KULCHA bread or some CHAT at the Chat restaurants- a kind of spicy savoury snack! Leave a Comment

 British Architectural
Piece...Lahore Museum by WAHEEDASLAM, 1 more photos
Immediately after independence plans were taken in hand to establish National Museum of Pakistan. It was on 17th April 1950 that the National Museum of Pakistan was inaugurated in Freer Hall building, replacing the defunct Victoria Museum.
In order to advise the National Museum of Pakistan to enrich its collection through new acquisition, an Advisory Council for the purchase of antiquities and works of Arts was also formed by the government in 1950.
The development of museums in the country has been spectacular and the last decades have seen quite a few museums being established and many others reorganized on modern lines. Recently a museum exclusively devoted to Allama Iqbal at Javed Manzil, Lahore and another House Museum in the Quaid-I-Azam House (Flag Staff House) Karachi have been established. The detail of the existing museums under the charge of the Department of Archaeology & Museums as well as some of the private museums is given below: Leave a Comment

 Tonga in the Old City by AndreSTGT
Great architecture from the Moghul- and Raj-era (mosques, the Fort, the Mall) ; Shalimar Gardens; the huge tomb of Jehangir and, of course, Old Lahore with its maze of narrow alleys, bazaars, old buildings and open sewers.
However, there's a different side to Lahore, just a couple of kilometers from the hustle and bustle of the Old City, there are tidy and green suburbs and chic cafes. Leave a Comment

 Lahore city scene by WAHEEDASLAM
Lahore is the second largest city of Pakistan and the provincial capital of Punjab. Apart from being the cultural and academic centre of the country, Lahore is the Mughal "show-window" of Pakistan. In the Mughal days a 9-meter high brick wall surrounded the Old City. It had a rampart running around it which almost connected with the River Ravi to serve as protection for the city. A circular road around the rampart gave access to the city through thirteen gates. Some of the imposing structures of these gates are still preserved. In the bazaars of the Old City one can still find tiny shops where craftsmen can be seen busy turning out master-pieces in copper, brass, silver and textiles in traditional fashion. Lahore is a city full of life and color. It has something for everyone. Large number of beautiful gardens, historically exotic forts, mosques and shrines, mughal architectures and museums, shopping centres, fairs and festivals all add-up to make Lahore as Pakistan's most surprisingly colorful package!

 Hazuri Bagh and Lahore Fort, by WAHEEDASLAM
Hazuri Bagh (garden) lies in the square between Badshahi Mosque and Lahore Fort. Hazuri Bagh Baradari, the marble pavilion in the center of the garden, is one of the few surviving Sikh monuments. It was built by Rangit Singh in 1818. The Tomb of Allama Muhammad Iqbal, the great poet-philosopher, who lived from 1873 to 1938 and conceived the idea of Pakistan as a separate Muslim state, is on the left as you face the gate of Badshahi Mosque. Built in 1951, this small tomb is constructed of red sandstone. The window grills, doorframes and entire interior are of carved white marble. The translucent marble headstone, a gift from Afghanistan, is inscribed with two of poet's couplets condemning racial discrimination. Leave a Comment
