Very nice. Most seem to be in Lahore. Is that correct? Is Lahore the city with the "most of the best" Pakistani architecture?

Lahore is to Pakistan what Berlin is to Germany. Its a VERY old city with extremely rich architecture,crafts, arts, food and culture.

Other than Lahore, exotic oriental architecture is found scattered everywhere in Pakistan, from small towns to the big old cities like Karachi,Peshawar & Multan. Modern architecture can be found in Islamabad, which is a new city built in 50's-60's.

The Shahi Mosque in Chitral was constructed in 1915. Skilled craftsmen were brought from India for its construction. Hense the architecture has a great resemblance with Mughal architecture. The tomb of Mehtar Shuja ul Mulk, who constructed it, is situated in one corner of the mosque.
