city. The main attraction of the city
is its beautiful architecture and
bustling Bazaars. The tradition of
buildings is centuries old in Lahore
but the Moghul (1500AD to 1800AD)
have contributed the most to it. The
Moghul buildings are probably the
most attractive. On an average one
can easily spend two full days of
sightseeing here. There are numerous
mosques, monuments, bazaars, evening
Musical programs and a variety of
lifestyles in the city. The Lahore
Museum is the largest in the country
and houses articles from all over
the country. The city is located just
25km away from the Indian border on
the grand Trunk road. This makes it
a transit point before going into
India from Pakistan.
There
is a train from Lahore to Amritsar
on Thursdays & Tuesdays besides
regular road transport. It is also
well connected internationally by
PIA and a few Foreign carriers. There
are also regular flights from all
major cities of Pakistan to Lahore
operated by 3 Private airlines and

in the months of January & February
when it can get a bit chilly.
