Overview

Beyond the Mughal old city lies the Lahore the British built: a spine of red-brick and Indo-Gothic grandeur along the Mall (Mall Road). This tour takes in the Lahore Museum, Kipling’s father was its curator, the ornate High Court, the General Post Office, the National College of Arts, Government College, and the cathedrals, tracing the city’s late-19th and early-20th-century chapter.

It’s the perfect counterpoint to a Mughal day, and a favourite with architecture and history enthusiasts.
