Hazuri Bagh is a garden in Lahore, Pakistan, bounded by the Lahore Fort (east side), Badshahi Mosque (west side), the Samadhi of Ranjit Singh (north side) and the Roshnai Gate (south side). In the center stands the Hazuri Bagh Baradari, built by Ranjit Singh.
The Hazuri Bagh is a small enclosure between the Alamgiri Gate of the Lahore Fort and eastern gate of the Badshahi Mosque. This garden was built by Maharajah Ranjit Singh in 1813 to celebrate the capture of the famous Koh-i-Noor Diamond from Shah Shujah of Afghanistan. The Serai Alamgiri formerly stood here.
The garden was planned and built under the supervision of Faqir Azizuddin in the traditional Mughal style layout. After its completion, it is said, Maharajah Ranjit Singh, at the suggestion of Jamadar Khushhal Singh, ordered that marble be removed from various mausoleums of Lahore to construct a baradari (pavilion) here. This task was given to Khalifa Nooruddin. Elegant carved marble pillars support the baradari’s delicate cusped arches. The central area, where Ranjit Singh held court, has a mirrored ceiling. Both the garden and the baradari, originally a 45-foot, three-storey square with a basement approached by fifteen steps, suffered extensive damage during the fratricidal Sikh wars and was only reclaimed and laid out according to the original plan during the British period. On 19 July 1932, the uppermost story collapsed and was never reconstructed.
Every Sunday afternoon, people gather in the gardens to hear reciters recite traditional Punjabi Qisse, such as Heer Ranjha and Sassi Punnun, and other Punjabi Sufi poetry.
The tomb of Muhammad Iqbal lies across from the garden outside of the Badshahi Mosque.

The Dyal Singh Trust Library was established in Lahore in 1908 in pursuance of the Will of the Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia. It was first setup in the Exchange Building, which was the residence of Sardar Dyal Singh. Later, it was shifted to the existing building. Initially, it was started with one thousand books and a grant of Rs.60,000/= provided by Sardar Dyal Singh, to meet the financial requirements of the Library.
The income from his personal property was donated to run the day to day affairs of the Library, and they were supervised by a Trust. The Library enjoyed popularity before partition. However, in 1948 it suffered a considerable loss owing to riots in Lahore and a good number of books and its property were lost /damaged.
The Library remained closed for 12 years owing to the migration of its Non-Muslim Trustees. It restarted functioning in 1964 when its administrative control was taken-over by the Evacuee Trust Property Board, Government of Pakistan, Lahore. In 1985 under a directive of the President of Pakistan, its administrative control was transferred to the Education Department, Govt. of the Punjab, but was again repatriated to the Evacuee Trust Property Board, Government of Pakistan, in 1989.
