Around Lahore – A Photo Essay

Old architecture always intrigues me, this is why Lahore was always my favorite city because of the old red bricked buildings around. They are the remnants of the Mughal empire, British rule and then the partition of the subcontinent. There is nostalgia in the air which is created by the architecture of the city, of good and bad times. Past moves around the present. Recently, when I visited Lahore, I felt a strange sensation that I am living in the past and present at the same time. So while I was wandering around the city I clicked the mood of the city which I was feeling.

Later, I was asked by the people around to not take the pictures.
