There is s'more
-Who can forget the crisp and culinary height of the halwa poori of Royal Park. One poori is enough to get you through the day. It is hard to stop at one though.
-Let me play the music... shedaees will understand what I am talking about.
KATTA KUT KATTA KUT KUT KUT KUT KATTA KUT....
-Undersay from Ichhara bazar.
-Pathoorays and cholays from the walled city
-Lal khoo ki burfee and kalakand
-Bhaiyaa key kabab in Model Town
-Banazeer kulfa.
-Traditional Lahori sweet dish, Falooda. The syrup that is poured over the mixture of ice cubes, fresh made vermicellis and rubree is so sweet and tasty that it can start riots.
-Samosays and kachorian from ghalib market in gulberg
The list is endless. I am drooling on my keyboard now.

Lahore is famous for its foods and its people alongwith historical places ofcourse. The people here are generally simple, fun loving and accepting. The foods are just great, yes its heavy sometimes:D but its still yummy.
The problems Lahore is facing are ocmmon to every big city of the month. i.e. mis management, pollution and what not. But thats part and parcel of life in every big city (specially in subcontinent)
Ehsan and mahnoor-- Thanks for sharing pictures and information
Lahore is just so much fun. Everytime I go I have alot of fun. Certainly, one of Pakistan's best cities. What I like most is that during the night, you see so many people outside n having a good time with their families.
I actually wrote an article on Lahore, you might like reading it. It explains a bit of history and a very brief info about the city.
Najim : I think your link has an error or it could just be my computer because it keeps saying **website not responding **
Currently the backbone router has some problem with routing so the conneciton is not coming in. Please wait & hopefully the problem will be resolved soon. I can ssh into the SERVER but for some reason the traffic on port 80 is not responding.
Address is same.
Its UP now, you can check it, also u are free to steal the pictures (if u can) :)

very beautiful article, well written. I like the way you did the introduction “Lahore, The heart of Pakistan” and then broke it down to history, culture, and festivals. really like your views on Basant
p.s. Just to let you know the time on there is wrong ![]()
well as far as time is concerned that is being relayed from another site, unfortunately I dont have control over it.
I will be updating the page with time and might add more pictures there in future. Due to shortage of free time I am unable to add a lot of things but with time I will add them too.

Does anyone know how is it in Lahore these days as far as the weather is concerned. Is it real hot n muggy or just hot or just spring like pleasant?
I might be visiting lahore in the next few days and want to be prepared, at least mentaly, what to expect from weather.
The temperature reading (from websites) does not tell the whole story.
