Lahore Division

Centered on the historic city of Lahore, with Mughal architecture, Sikh holy sites and plenty of street food.

Lahore Division lies in northeastern Punjab, bordering India, and includes Lahore and surrounding districts. Lahore Fort, the Badshahi Mosque and the Shalimar Gardens represent the best of Mughal architecture, and the Old City's bazaars and food streets are lively. The flag-lowering ceremony at the Wagah border draws crowds, and Nankana Sahib is the birthplace of Guru Nanak, founder of Sikhism. October to March is the most comfortable time to visit. Allama Iqbal International Airport is the main gateway, and railways and motorways connect the rest of the country.
