The city with life

Lahore is THE PLACE to be. Basant, great nite life, great shopping....it's all there. Make sure you take some time to experience Lahore and all it has to offer.

Lahore Ft.

Lahore Fort

One of the coolest places to visit Lahore from a historical point of view. The grounds are laid with incredible architecture and design. I can't even imagine what it looked like during its occupation. Make sure you plan for a long visit while there if you want to capture everything.

Lahore Museum

Pretty decent place, but don't go on a Sunday (like with most things) because it's PACKED. If you like relics from different time periods and from different cultures you'll love this. Upstairs is also a great place to see artifacts from the "beginning" of Pakistan.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Great local customs, people are friendly, plenty to see
Cons:Traffic sucks and it's pretty dusty
In a nutshell:A suprise to those "city folk"

Last visit to Lahore: Mar 2005
