Lahore Aye means Lahore is Lahore in the local language! Often said by Punjabi's who are proud of their city and fair enough they have all reason to be! I'm a big fan myself... Lahore’s Badshahi Mosque is the city’s icon, its premier religious site, and a focal point for celebrations and festivities. It’s also a photographer’s paradise – one’s lens is drawn to the incredible ornate arches, the bulbous marble domes and the soaring red stone minarets. The glimpses of the city which peep over the high walls; the residential blocks, the gurdwara, the Shahi fort opposite. The devotees who pray in a seemingly endless cycle of recitations and prostrations, those that sit and wonder.Badshahi Mosque is located in Lahore. It was built in 1673 by the Mughal Emperor, Aurangzeb. It is a fine example of the architecture of Mughal Era. Today, it is the largest mosque in Pakistan and is one of the most beautiful mosques in the world.
