@Gabrujawaan

Some observations from a visit last year:

1. Police looks like daakooos.

2. Mullahs rule. They can shutdown an entire city by calling on junior and intern Mullahs.

3. Roads have not been repaired since British Rule.

4. There are too many people and they are everywhere. Walking around some markets is like playing Dodge Ball where you are dodging bodies.

5. Traffic is like a 3-D video game where objects come at you from all angles. Animals and veichles co-exist.

6. Dirt and smog can be seen rising from miles away.

7. Driver paid a tula 100 rupees to get out of a traffic violation.

8. Village had the best food in town and they have a guy with dholki/harmonium who sings Attah ullah Eisa Hailwi songs on demand.

9. I felt clastrophobic everywhere.

More to come as I think about it…

glad u liked it

p.s. i’ve been to lahore only a couple of times in my life and even that for a few hours, but some ppl told me there is lots of development and the road infrastructure is being improved quite a bit.
