I find Lahoris and Londoners generally very well dressed. Of course fashion is important to me, and I think both Cities have the most exquisite street style. You just stroll down the popular streets to get your dose of fashion inspiration. Both Cities are aesthetically very pleasing on the eyes. They're far from becoming concrete jungles, and despite all the advancement and growing population and commerce, both cities very proud of holding on to greenery.

Londoners are considered snooty and proud, while Lahoris are known as *zinda dill, *happy go lucky types, and they really are. Lahoris are definitely very humorous and matey, while Londoners are fast paced and icy.

commercial,challenging,literary

And in present day, beaurocrats, politicians, judges, and generals know that it is the end of their journey, even for invaders, their troubles stopped here. Miyan Mahmood Baqar of Urdu newspaper, during mutiny days in 1857 wrote, the rebel as soon as move around chandni chowk and drinks water of delhi, loses all will to fight :)

It is still most powerful city of Sub-continent :)
