Lahore has to offer Lahore’s rich Mughal architecture and the beauty that is Minar e Pakistan. Lahore is filled with places that are both scenics as well as historic.
Some of the must-see places in Lahore that we recommend are:
Minar e Pakistan
The iconic landmark built during 1960 to 1968 marks the place where the Independence resolution was passed on 23 March 1940. Minar-e-Pakistan is considered to be the largest tower in Pakistan. This place is also known as the “Tower of Pakistan” an open landmark placed in Iqbal Park in Lahore, Pakistan.
Badshahi Masjid
Considered one of the last great monuments of the Mughal period, the Badshahi mosque remains one of the largest Mosque on the Indo-Pak subcontinent, second only to the largest which is the Faisal Mosque which is located in the Capital city Islamabad.
Badshahi Mosque was commissioned by Emperor Awrangzib (1658-1707) to house a number of relics of the Prophet. The scheme is based upon that of the Jami Masjid of Shah Jahanabad, Delhi, and uses similar materials such as the red sandstone decorated with white marble which is a stark difference from the tilework facing typical of Lahore architecture.
Gawal Mandi Food Street
If you want to experience the diverse food culture of Lahore, the food street in Gawal mandi is your best option. The food street is considered to be the oldest food street in Lahore. the history of Gawal mandi dates back to the pre-partition era as it was one of the first settlements outside the Walled City (Lahore). Some of the most mouthwatering and popular food items available on this strip include fried fish, hareesa, barbecue meats, and the classic Nan khatai. All of which are considered to be traditional specialties of Lahore. Moreover, the iconic Feeka Lassi is also located on the decades-old Gawalmandi food street. All in all a total foodie heaven.
