Shahi Hammam
شاہی حمام
A Persian-style public bath built in 1635 inside Delhi Gate. After restoration, its wall frescoes and underfloor heating system are on full display.
The Shahi Hammam was built in 1635 by Wazir Khan and is the most complete surviving Mughal-era public bath (hammam) in South Asia. It was restored between 2013 and 2015 by the Aga Khan Trust for Culture and the Walled City of Lahore Authority. Visitors can see the changing room, cold and hot baths, domed skylights, and bird-and-flower frescoes on the walls. Beneath a transparent glass floor, the original underfloor heating flues are visible. It stands just inside Delhi Gate, at the start of the Royal Trail. A ticket is required. It can be combined with Delhi Gate and Wazir Khan Mosque.
