Nightlife info
Lahore Nightlife
Bars, nightclubs, restaurants, and music venues give Lahore a distinctive nightlife scene. The culture here is unique: It unites the often-regal beauty of Pakistan’s architecture with modern elements to create an enticing agenda of things to do in the capital of Punjab.The Markets
Bustling markets transform the streets of Lahore into vibrant shopping districts come nightfall. Pricing and offerings range from low-end to upscale, meaning there’s a distinctive variety among these crowded stalls. The jewelry at Sooha Bazaar Shalami is credited by visitors as the cream of the crop—in fact, the area inside the ancient walled city carries only the most high-end, reputable silver and gold jewelry available. Other areas include Anarkali Bazar, which is known as the oldest such outfit in all of South Asia. Fortress Stadium scales the heights of modernity: One of its focal points is a colorful McDonald’s with a children’s area. There are also barbecue restaurants and chic boutiques throughout. Liberty Market tends to draw very young crowds, and visitors comment on the high number of teenagers simply standing around waiting to chat up one another.Diverse Dining
Dining out come nightfall is one of the area’s prime activities. Restaurants abound on M M Alam Road Gulberg, which is home to everything from local street vendors, to Chinese eateries, to upscale establishments. For much more casual meals, visitors pop into Fortress Stadium on Upper Mall Road for a quick bite. One of the best places to experience traditional Lahore street food is on Mozang Chungi. Fish is one of the most popular dishes, typically served with chutney and naan. The Gawalmandi Food Street masquerades as an unassuming retail district by day. When the sun sets, though, it transforms into a vibrant foodie’s paradise that visitors praise for its open-air setup. The key here is inexpensive food at its best, though many warn that it’s also quite spicy. Word to the wise from the experienced: Simply ask if you want a non-spicy meal, but be prepared to experience a little heat anyway. Visitors also recommend dressing appropriately, as short skirts on women may be deemed inappropriate or draw unwelcome attention. There are also some extremely casual options, including ice cream shops and cafes whose decor is largely simple and obscure. These are the places visitors call home when they want an easy meal or simply wish to people watch in a safe environment while listening to some music or even dancing. Note that many of the cafes do not sell alcohol, but it’s not uncommon to see someone smoking. Visitors recommend dressing up just a bit—it’s better to err on the side of formal than overly casual. A nice top and a pair of slacks are perfectly acceptable in the evening, or a dress and tights.Culture and history info

Hindu Shahi Perior
Lahore is mentioned capital of the Punjab during the rein of Anandapala- the Hindu Shahi king who is referred to as the ruler of (hakim-e-lahur) after leaving the earlier capital of Waihind
Ghaznavid Empire to Delhi Sultanate
In 11th century the city was captured by Sultan Mahmud of Ghazni. The sultan took Lahore after a long siege and battle in which the city was burned and depopulated. In 1021, Sultan Mahmud appointed Malik Ayaz to the throne and made Lahore the capital of the Ghaznavid Empire of India. As the first Muslim governor of Lahore, Ayaz rebuilt and repopulated the city. He added many important features, such as city gates and a masonry fort, built in 1037–1040 on the ruins of the previous one, which had been demolished in the fighting (as recorded by Munshi Sujan Rae Bhandari, author of the Khulasatut Tawarikh in 1695–96). The present Lahore Fort stands on the same location. Under Ayaz's rule, the city became a cultural and academic center, renowned for poetry.[36] The tomb of Malik Ayaz can still be seen in the Rang Mahal commercial area of town.Turk Dynasies
After the fall of the Ghaznavid Empire, Lahore was ruled by various Turk dynasties known as the Delhi Sultanate, including the Khiljis, Tughlaqs, Sayyid, Lodhis and Suris.[38] When Sultan Qutb-ud-din Aibak was crowned here in 1206, he became the first Muslim sultan in South Asia.[39] It was not until 1524 that Lahore became part of India's Mughal Empire.[40] During the reign of Qutbuddin Aibak, Lahore was known as the 'Ghazni of India'. Scholars and poets from as far away as Kashghar, Bukhara, Samarkand, Iraq, Khorasan and Herat, gathered in Lahore and made it a city of learning. Under Aibak, Lahore had more poets of Persia than any other Islamic city.
Lohanas
In the 13th Century, the Loharana king, Chahir Ray, was betrayed by his confidant Kualnger, who turned traitor for a large fortune in gold and gems. Due to this, the Lohana community split, and a new leader emerged who again unified the Lohanas. Veer Jashraj, who is revered as Veer Dada Jashraj, was born in the city of Lohar (today's Lahore in Pakistan), which was the capital of Lohargadh. His domain extended from Lahore to Multan. As the folklore goes, Mongol invader Changez Khan, attacked Multan and was killed by Dada Jashraj, Rana of Lohargadh.
This finds mention in Mongol folklore, which say, "King of Mongols was killed by Mirana, the tiger of Multan fort". His descendants who proudly carry the surname of 'Mirana' preserve the memory of this great warrior king. Dada Jashraj was also treacherously killed when only 28 - a life so short but full of heroic deeds.
After the death of Dada Jashraj, the decline of Lohana kingdom began and their reign at Lohargadh ended. King Dahir (Raja Dhahir) ruled for a while from Daibal (Banbhore 60 kilometers from today's Karachi).
After demise of Raja Dahir during the invasion of Arabs under Mohammed Bin Qasim, Daibal, Narayankot (Hyderabad) and other places of Sindh fell to Muslims. It was around this time that some Lohanas converted to Islam. Many migrated to far-off southern regions like Kutchchh, Saurashtra and Gujarat and gradually became a trader community like Agarwals and Baranwals.Mughals 1524 to 1752 AD
In the 16th century after the arrival of the Moghul king Babur Lahore came to a new glory, Moghuals made Lahore their winter capital to escape the extreme winter of Delhi. The Mughals, famous as builders, gave Lahore great care and attention they built some of the finest architectural monuments in Lahore, many of which are becoming extant today.
Lahore as winter capital grew under emperor Babur; from 1584 to 1598, later the emperors Akbar the Great and Jahangir also added to its glory, the city served as the empire's capital. The peak of architectural reached during the reign of Shahjehan, who built many wonderful buildings in the city, many of these buildings and gardens today present a picture of Lahore old glory.
Lahore's reputation for beauty fascinated the English poet John Milton, who wrote "Agra and Lahore, the Seat of the Great Mughal" in 1670. During this time, the massive Lahore Fort was built. A few buildings within the fort were added by Akbar's son, Mughal emperor Jahangir, who is buried in the city. Jahangir's son, Shahjahan Burki, was born in Lahore. He, like his father, extended the Lahore Fort and built many other structures in the city, including the Shalimar Gardens. The last of the great Mughals, Aurangzeb, who ruled from 1658 to 1707, built the city's most famous monuments, the Badshahi Masjid and the Alamgiri Gate next to the Lahore Fort.
Post Mughal Era
During the 18th century, as Mughal power dwindled, Lahore was often invaded, and government authority was lacking. In 1739, Nader Shah, the Turkic emperor of Afsharid dynasty in Persia, invaded north western India, defeated the Mughal Emperor Mohammed Shah at the huge Battle of Karnal, and occupied most of Balochistan and the Indus plain including Lahore.[43] In 1747, the Durrani Empire was established in by Ahmad Shah Abdali in Afghanistan, during this period, Punjab saw frequent invasions by Ahmad Shah Abdali, The great Punjabi poet Baba Waris Shah said of the situation, "khada peeta wahy da, baqi Ahmad Shahy da" — "we have nothing with us except what we eat and wear, all other things are for Ahmad Shah". In 1758 the Maratha Empire's general Raghunathrao marched onwards, attacked and conquered Lahore and Attock and drove out Timur Shah Durrani, the son and viceroy of Ahmad Shah Abdali. Lahore, Multan, Kashmir and other subahs on the south and eastern side of Attock were under the Maratha rule for the most part. In Punjab and Kashmir, the Marathas were now major players.[44][45] In 1761, following the victory at the Third battle of Panipat between the Durrani and the Maratha Empire, Ahmad Shah Abdali captured remnants of the Maratha Empire in Punjab and Kashmir regions and had consolidated control over them
Sikh reign
During the late 18th century, frequent invasions by Ahmad Shah Abdali and the Durrani Empire led to a lack of governance in the Punjab region. Invasions and chaos allowed bands of warring Sikhs to gain control in some areas. The Sikhs were gaining momentum at an enormous rate. In 1801, the twelve Sikh misls joined into one to form a new empire and sovereign Sikh state ruled by Maharaja Ranjit Singh.
When Zaman Shah invaded Punjab again in 1799 Ranjit Singh was able to make gains in the chaos. He defeated Zaman in a battle between Lahore and Amritsar. The citizens of Lahore, encouraged by Sada Kaur, offered him the city and he was able to take control of it in a series of battles with the Bhangi Misl and their allies. Lahore served as the capital city of the Sikh Empire.
While much of Lahore's Mughal era fabric lay in ruins by the end of eighteenth century, rebuilding efforts under the Sikhs were shaped by and indebted to Mughal practice. Ranjit Singh moved into the Mughal palace in Lahore's citadel. By 1812 he had mostly refurbished the city's defenses by adding a second circuit of outer walls that followed the outline of Akbar's original walls and were separated from them by a moat.

17 Reasons Why Lahore Is The Greatest City in Pakistan
For centuries, Lahore has remained a cultural hub for South Asia. With a rich history dating over a millennium, the Mughal City of Gardens is also the 14th most populous city in the world. So what specifically makes this city so special?1. History
Known as the Mughal City of Gardens, it’s hard not to see the influence of the Mughals in Lahore’s culture and architecture. There’s the Lahore Fort or Shahi Qila, which was built during the Mughal Emperor Akbar’s reign and has been regulary upgraded by all the subsequent rulers.


2. Minar-e-Pakistan
The monument was built in the 1960s on the site where the resolution for the formation of Pakistan was passed in 1941. That makes it a pretty darn important political site…
3. Wagah border
Wagah border deserves to be mentioned separately because of it’s political and historical significance. The Wagah border ceremony itself has become such an attraction, that many people venture out to the border daily just to see the flag lowering ceremony.
4. Food capital of Pakistan
Ask any Lahori and they’ll tell you that there’s no better place for food in Pakistan than Lahore. With historic places such as Gawal Mandi and Anarkali to more modern establishments in places like MM Alam Road, Lahore is beaming with countless dining options.
5. Education
Lahore has historically been a very intellectual city. And fortunately, that hasn’t changed over time. Known also as the education capital of Pakistan, Lahore has more colleges and universities than any other city in Pakistan.
6. Culture
There’s a reason Lahore is known as the cultural hub of Pakistan. The people of Lahore celebrate several festivals throughout the year which allows for the city to remain lively. In addition to the Eid festivals, Lahore is also renowned for Basant, the Festival of Lamps or Mela Chiraghan, the National Horse and Cattle show, Pakistan Army and Pakistan Airforce parades, and others. Basically, there are a lot of celebrations that go on in Lahore which allow for a lively and diverse culture to flourish in the city. Source: f9view7. Shopping
From Liberty to MM Alam Road to Defence to Liberty to Shah Alam Market, there is something to buy all over Lahore for every age group. Not really sure if making you go broke because of all the shopping is a good thing about Lahore…
8. Family playground
Not only is Lahore a lively place for adults, but also for children (to the relief of many parents). From Sinbad to Battlefield to Joy Land to Wonder World, kids are sure to enjoy themselves in all these places. Moreover, Lahore is also home to the Lahore Zoo which happens to be second oldest zoo in South Asia.
9. No MQM!
But seriously.
10. The increasing number of cinemas
The increase in modern movie theaters across Pakistan is significantly helping improve the movie industry as a whole across Pakistan. And Lahore is leading that charge with the highest number of cinemas in Pakistan.
11. Improving public transportation
Now this one draws mixed opinions. Regardless of what people will say about where funds should be spent, one can’t argue that Lahore’s public transportation system has been improving over the years.
12. Support for entrepreneurship
Plan 9 and LUMS Center for Entrepreneurship are just some of the incubating outlets that provide support for startups to help them develop their business. Innovation begins at Lahore.
13. Fashion forward
Most of Pakistan’s fashion industry is based in Lahore with renowned designers such as Hassan Sheheryar Yasin, Karma, Qasim Yar Tiwana, Khawar Riaz and several others. More so, Lahore is also home to some of Pakistan’s important fashion institutions such as the Lahore School of Fashion Design and Pakistan Institue of Fashion and Design. And then there’s also Lahore’s Fashion Week.
14. Sports
Another thing Lahore is well known for is sports. In addition to the sporting spirit, Lahore also has several world class venues. In the past, Lahore hosted the 1996 Cricket World Cup final and 1990 Hockey World Cup final. In addition, all the major sports governing bodies are headquartered in Lahore. In addition to stadiums, Lahore also has several country clubs which cater to the sporting nature of the lively city.
15. Performing Arts
There are several theaters in Lahore that promote performing arts but none has helped preserve art and entertainment industry as much as the grand Alhamra Arts Complex. Alhamra is a large venue that consists of several theaters and amphitheaters. Lahore also plays host to World Performing Arts Festival which is a ten day festival of musical, theater, concernts, dance, mine and puppetry shows.
16. City of Gardens
Another name given to Lahore is the City of Gardens. Many of the gardens in Lahore were built during the Mughal era and fortunately, many of them have survived the test of time. From Shalimar Garden built by Shah Jehan to Jilani Park aka Race Course Park to Bagh-e-Jinnah, Lahore lives up to its name as the City of Gardens.
17. The people
With their music, festivals, parties, music, language, art, literature, cuisines and what not, Lahoris are a unique breed. Like many other places in Pakistan, Lahoris are also known for being very hospitable. But Lahoris take hospitality to the next level and go out of their way to make you feel at home while having a great time – they’ll put your comfort before their own.Read more
