Pakistan In Pictures

The Walled City of Lahore, also known as the "Old City," or "Anderoon Shehr” is the section of Lahore that was fortified by a city wall during the Mughal era.




Snow Lake, or Lukpe Lawo, is a high-altitude glacial basin in the Karakoram mountain range in the Northern Areas of Pakistan. Snow Lake is located 16,000 feet (4,877 m) above sea level, and is approximately 10 miles (16 km) wide. The basin lies at the head of the Biafo and Hispar glaciers, which spread down from the Hispar Pass in opposite directions, forming a 61 mile (100 km) river of ice that is among the world's longest continuous glacier systems outside of the polar regions.

Lahore: devotees dance during a three-day festival at the shrine of Madhu Lal Hussain on Saturday. Hussain was a disciple of Shaikh Bahlol Daryai Chinioti. Following his master’s advice, he studied mysticism and spent 12 years in penance at the shrine of Hazrat Data Gunj Bukhsh. Like all Sufis, he was a nonconformist and did not believe in ritualism, but direct communion with the Almighty. He even shaved off his beard and moustache. His tomb and shrine lies in Baghbanpura, adjacent to the Shalamar Gardens . His urs is celebrated here every year.
