Lahore Five Giants
Lahore, the culturally rich, bustling and energetic capital of Punjab steeped in culinary delights is an amazing city to explore. Our home in Gulshan Ravi is a perfect place to experience the combintaion of local family and community life in an inner area close to the old walled city yet removed enough to avoid the chaos.
​
Lahore is home to a vast array of cultural sights such as Badshahi Mosque, Lahore Fort, Shalimar Gardens, the gates of the walled city, Jahangir Tomb, Sufi shrines, Wagah border ceremony, Wazhir Khan Mosque and vibrant markets. The foods of Lahore are the best in the universe and the large garden spaces breathe a sigh of relief amongst the noise and bustle.
