Lahore is the Capital city of Punjab Province of Pakistan. With the population of
approximately 10 Million it is a very lively city. The main attraction of the city is its
beautiful Architecture and bustling Bazaars. The tradition of buildings is centuries old
in Lahore but the Moghuls (1500AD to 1800AD) have contributed the most to it. The Moghul
buildings are probably the most attractive. On an average one can easily spend two full
days of sightseeing here. There are numerous mosques monuments bazaars, evening Musical
programs and a variety Lifestyle in the city. The Lahore Museum (although very
poorly organized) is the largest in the
country and houses articles from all over the country. The city of Lahore is located just 25 KMS

Foreign carriers. There are also regular flight from all major cities of Pakistan to
