Yesterday I tried making Gol Guppay for the first time and I wanted them to be like I always had them in my hometown, Multan. They are less tangy, more spicy and full of flavour than a regular pani puri (or i like to think so because i have a long history with them)
These specific Multani style Gol Guppay have spicy channay (garbanzo bean) boondi, (tiny dumplings)and piyaz (onion) dipped in dahi (yougurt). Raita has few pinches of chaat Masala, salt, black pepper and dried mint. Few teaspoons of water in yougurt will make its consistency just perfect to go into the puri easily.
I am so happy that my experiment turned out so good and eating gol guppay on a hot afternoon certainly reminded me of blazing Summers in Multan.
My paitu friends! Next time when you are in my neck of woods, come over and we'll have our very own chat patta Gol Guppa Party.
Standing at the north-eastern fringe of the ancient fort of Multan, is the eternal abode of Al-Sheikh Al-Kabir Sheikh-ul-Islam Baha-ud-Din Abu Muhammad Zakaria Al-Qureshi Al-Asadi, one of the greatest saints of the Suhrawardiya Silsila and one of the most distinguished disciples of Sheikh Al-Shuyukh Shahab Al-Din Suhrawardy. He was the founder of Suhrawardiya Silsila in the Sub-Continent. He was born in 1170. the shrine was built in 1263.
The prime attraction of the Fort area is the Mausoleum generally known as Bahawal Haq (the ornament of the Faith). The dome of the Mausoleum is visible from miles and dominates the skyline of Multan.
Sheikh Baha-ud-Din Zakariya known as Bahawal Haq was born at Kot Kehror, a town of Layyah District near Multan, around 1170. For 15 years he went from place to place to preach Islam and after his wanderings Bahawal Haq settled in Multan in 1222. He died in 1267. The Mausoleum is a square of 51 feet 9 inches, measured internally. Above this is an octagon, about half the height of the square, which is surmounted by a hemispherical dome. The Mausoleum was almost completely ruined during the siege of 1848, but was soon afterwards restored by the Muslims.
Date leaves basket weaving is a traditional handicraft in Multan, a city in Pakistan. The art of weaving baskets using date palm leaves has been passed down through generations and is still practiced by local artisans today.
The process of making date leaves baskets starts with harvesting the leaves from the date palm tree. The leaves are then cleaned and dried in the sun before being woven into baskets of various shapes and sizes. The weaving is done using a simple technique that involves folding and twisting the leaves to create a sturdy and durable basket.
Date leaves baskets are popular in Multan and are used for a variety of purposes, including carrying groceries, storing household items, and even as decorative pieces. The baskets are known for their durability and strength, as well as their unique and intricate designs.
Visitors to Multan can find date leaves baskets at local markets and handicraft stores, where they can observe the weaving process and purchase baskets to take home as souvenirs. The baskets make excellent gifts and are a great way to support local artisans and preserve traditional crafts.

Hala is a famed city for its remarkable handicraft industry some of which is dying slowly due to lack of public support. Hala tiles compare with those made in Multan Sharif in Punjab. Pottery making is also very popular here. People from across the country, when building their homes, visit it for the custom made tiles.
تاریخ کو اپنے وجود سے شرمندہ کرتا ہوا یہ قدیم شہر ملتان کے نام سے جانا اور پہچانا جاتا ہے ۔کرشن اور جمباوتی کی منتوں مرادوں سے مانگی ہوئی اولاد سامبا نے سورج کے دیوتا کے لیے شہر کے بیچو بیچ جو مندر تعمیر کروایا تھا اسی نسبت سے شہر کو مول استھان پکارا جانے لگا۔ جو مولتان سے ملتان ہو گیا۔ خارجی دروازوں سے منسلک فصیل نے شہر کے اندرون کو ماں کے دامن کی طرح صدیوں سے سمیٹا ہوا تھا کہ بالائی پنجاب کے راجہ رنجیت سنگھ کے حملے نے اسے بکھیر کر رکھ دیا۔ ملتان اپنے ہی دروازوں سے باہر آ گیا۔ چناب کے کناروں نے فاصلہ کر لیا۔ یوں وہ شہر جہاں سے پورے ہندوستان میں ہولی کا تہوار شروع ہوا تھا پھیکا پڑتا گیا۔
گو اندرون شہر میں وقت کے بھاری وجود سے دبی کہنہ عمارتیں اب بھی گزری عظمتوں کا پتہ دیتی ہیں۔ لیکن یہاں پر بسنے والے لوگوں کی آنکھوں میں سفر کی تھکان دکھائی دینے لگ پڑی ہے۔ دور جدید کے تقاضوں نے ان کو اسی شہر میں ہی اجنبی کر دیا ہے جس کو ان کے آباؤ اجداد نے کئی قرن آباد رکھا۔ اب پرانے شہر سے ان کو صرف وسائل کی کمی نے باندھ رکھا ہے وگرنہ یہ لوگ بھی کھیتوں کو تیاگ کر تعمیر کیے جانے والی ہاؤسنگ سوسائٹیز میں منتقل ہو چکے ہوتے۔
