Bagh-e-Jinnah
باغ جناح
Originally the Lawrence Gardens, built by the British in 1862, with towering old trees and the Victorian-style Jinnah Library, a popular photo spot.
Bagh-e-Jinnah was originally called the Lawrence Gardens and was laid out in 1862. It covers about 57 hectares and doubles as a botanical garden, with hundreds of tree species and seasonal flower beds. At its heart stands the Jinnah Library, formerly Montgomery Hall, a Victorian building with white colonnades that looks especially striking when lit up at night. The park also has an open-air theatre, tea stalls, and a cricket ground. Entry is free, and early morning is when locals come to walk and exercise. Located on the eastern section of Mall Road, next to the Lahore Zoo and the Governor House.
