A view of the Lahore Fort in the city of Lahore, Pakistan.

Lahore, Pakistan

The Lahore Fort, locally referred to as Shahi Qila is citadel of the city of Lahore.The Lahore Fort is one of the greatest fort built by the Mughals in South Asia. The Fort was originally built by Malik Ayaz, later it was altered by the famous architect who created the Taj Mahal, and finally it was rebuilt by the Great Akbar, lending itself to its own distinct character, history, and flavor.

 

The massive doors, and great walls of Lahore Fort, include the Diwan-e-Azam, a grand throne room with a marble pavilion, and a majestic court designed for public audiences. In addition Sheesh Mahal, the Naulakha, and Moti Masjid also located within the fort speak eloquently of days gone by, a time when architecture and design was created with unparalleled detail for the pleasure of great emperors, royalty, princes, and princesses. Intricate patterns of inlaid precious stones, carvings, mosaic tiles, and murals are displayed against backgrounds of rough tiles designed with such quality, that today, they are as beautiful as the day they were created and placed.

Here I go political again, but this photo from the Frontier Post, March-11-2008, really touched me.

A father holding his dead baby daughter after a suicide bomb blast (murder) in Lahore... the article started:

"The country was stabbed in the heart when suicide bombers murdered innocents in twin blasts in Lahore that left more than 31 people dead and nearly 176 injured. A majority of the victims died in a car bomb attack that hit Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) building in the heart of the city."

This is what 'Islamic' militants have given us, may Allah give them a special place in Jahannum for them to burn in. I am reminded of a quote I once read; "fundamentalists don't even know the fundamentals of their own religion." What are these illiterate people thinking?

About a dozen photos or so ago, I showed the outermost gate of the three that make up the Lahore Gate (also known as the Amar Singh Gate, after Amar Singh Rathore - who was a Rajput nobleman affiliated with the royal house of Marwar, and a courtier of the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in seventeenth-century). Having entered the outer gate, one turns half right and enters the second gate, visible on the left. This admits to this courtyard, still outside the forts main walls, and heavily defended from all sides. From here one continues through the third gate, between the pepper-pot towers.

  

It is on the Mall Road where major historical buildings are situated.

Rickshaws are a common mode of transport in Lahore

On February 18, U.S. Chargé d’Affaires Ambassador Richard Hoagland and U.S. Consul General in Lahore Nina Maria Fite toured Lahore Fort and Badshahi Mosque, two of Pakistan's greatest cultural treasures.

 

The tour started at the Fort's Alamgiri Gate, which was restored with a grant from the U.S. Ambassador’s Fund for Cultural Preservation (AFCP), which is helping conservation of Pakistan's national heritage.

 

Afzal Khan, Punjab Deputy Director of Archaeology, led the tour.
