Lahore is regarded as the cultural centre of Pakistan and one of the seats of the Mughal Empire. Yet a reliable and scholarly volume on the Mughal architecture of Lahore has not been available for the informed visitor or student. The topic is rich in terms of the variety of building types, and covers a period of several centuries interwoven with a complex history. It has been brought up to date by the authors own field surveys. The study is, surely, a first comprehensive attempt on the subject and would be useful for students, researchers and teachers of Mughal architecture.
