Pictures from cities | Lahore

It might be yet another university building, but it's Lahore Cathedral, completed in 1887 to a design by Oldred Scott, son of Gilbert; the towers were added in 1913. Photographs from 1925 show additional spires, but they apparently didn't last, because they're missing from photographs from 1930.

Beautiful pictures Ahsan! :)

Did you know Lahore has the largest concentration of Mughal monuments than any other city in the sub continent?

Really? Even more than Delhi? Delhi is crawling with mughal monuments, so much so that it has numerous traffic islands with an authentic mughal tomb as decoration!! What an honour for a simple traffic island!!

Lucknow is famous for Islamic architecture. The entire city is a monument. Sadly most of the old havelis and smaller monuments are in a state of disrepair. How are Lahore's monuments taken care of?
 
Yes, so often that I lost count!
There are only a few states I've not visited yet.

Are you an ISI agent? Can you be more specific as to which parts you have visited...:lol:...so that I can do some "research?":D
