  • Old-City Lahore: Popular Culture, Arts and Crafts
    Bāzyāft-31 (Jul-Dec 2017) Urdu Department, Punjab University, Lahore 21 Old-city Lahore: Popular Culture, Arts and Crafts Amjad Parvez ABSTRACT: Lahore has been known as a crucible of diversified cultures owing to its nature of being a trade center, as well as being situated on the path to the capital city Delhi. Both consumers and invaders, played their part in the acculturation of this city from ancient times to the modern era.This research paperinvestigates the existing as well as the vanishing popular culture of the Old-city Lahore. The cuisine, crafts, kites, music, painting and couture of Lahore advocate the assimilation of varied tastes, patterns and colours, with dissimilar origins, within the narrow streets of the Old- city. This document will cover the food, vendors, artisans, artists and the red-light area, not only according to their locations and existence, butin terms of cultural relations too.The paper also covers the distinct standing of Lahore in the South Asia and its popularity among, not only its inhabitants, but also those who ever visited Lahore. Introduction The Old City of Lahore is characterized by the diversity of cultures that is due tovarious invaders and ruling dynasties over the centuries. The narrow streets, dabbed patches of light andunmatched cuisine add to the colours, fragrance and panorama of this unique place. 22 Old-city Lahore: Popular Culture, Arts and Crafts Figure 1. “Old-city Lahore Street” (2015) By Amjad Parvez Digital Photograph Personal Collection Inside the Old-city Lahore, one may come the steadiness and stationary quality of time, or even one could feel to have been travelled backward in the two or three centuries when things were hand-made, and the culture was non-metropolitan.

  • Volume 3, 2021 University of Toronto, Graduate Union of Students of Art History
    INTAGLIO Volume 3, 2021 University of Toronto, Graduate Union of Students of Art History Beloved Mosque: The Wazir Khan Masjid of Lahore Sanniah Jabeen The Wazir Khan mosque is located in the Walled City of Lahore, along the southern side of Lahore's Shahi Guzargah, or “Royal Road.” This was the traditional route traversed by Mughal nobles and their guests on their way to royal residences at the Lahore Fort. The mosque is situated approximately 260 meters west of the Delhi Gate, where the mosque's Shahi Hammam (Royal Bath) is also located. The mosque faces both a town square, known as Wazir Khan Chowk, and the Chitta (White) Gate. A trip through the Delhi Gate to the Wazir Khan Chowk is an explosion of the senses. If one searches for images of the Delhi Gate Lahore, most incorrectly show the Gate as a wide-open entrance through which vehicles and people can easily pass. If one actually walks through the Delhi Gate, it is absolute chaos. Cars have to be parked many blocks away and visitors have to push through busy cart vendors, donkeys, hens, the occasional cow, as well as young men carrying twice their body weight in fruit, shoes, eatables, and clothing items. The Walled City of Lahore is the only place in the city where human driven carts still exist, as many streets are almost too narrow to allow motor vehicles or even donkey carts. The call for the prayer bellows periodically from the minarets of the Wazir Khan mosque and an increasing cacophony of human chatter, rickshaws, and motorbikes fills the air.

  • A Historic Journey of the Lahore City, to Attain Its Identity Through Architecture
    ISSN 2411-958X (Print) European Journal of May-August 2017 ISSN 2411-4138 (Online) Interdisciplinary Studies Volume 3, Issue 3 A Historic Journey of the Lahore City, to Attain Its Identity through Architecture Najma Kabir Associate Professor, Department of Architecture, University of South Asia, Lahore, Pakistan Ghulam Abbas Prof. Department of Architecture and Planning, University of Engineering & Technology Lahore, Pakistan Khizar Hayat Director Design, Central Design Office (WATER) Water and Power Development Authority, Lahore, Pakistan Abstract Lahore is a historical and the second largest city of Pakistan. It has a unique geographical location as it is located on the main trade and invasion routes to South Asia. Its history dates back to 1000BC, when its foundations were laid by the Hindu prince Loh, son of Rama Chandra. After the invasion of Mahmud of Ghazni in 1000AD, the city of Lahore has grown, flourished, suffered invasions and destruction, and yet survived through the Sultanate (1206-1524), the Mughal (1524-1712) and Sikh (1764-1849) periods with an uneven, yet unbroken, cultural evolution. This is evident in the form of monuments and artefacts that developed and evolved over time. The research paper discusses how architecture and contemporary arts in Lahore developed with time through the examples of representative buildings as case studies. It also discusses the impacts of cultural, religious and social factors on the art and architecture during different rules and how they are embodied in the city of Lahore to contribute towards its unique identity. The Mughals, who ruled for almost three centuries, were famous as great builders. They laid the infrastructure of Lahore and built finest architectural monuments.
