About Lahore
Lahore's walled city pulses with chaos and beauty—Mughal gardens spill water from every wall; the Badshahi Mosque's red sandstone rises beside the Lahori Gate. The bazaar's narrow lanes overflow with spice merchants, silk vendors, and food stalls; call to prayer echoes across the city five times daily. Lahore remains Pakistan's cultural heart despite Islamabad's political dominance.
