Lahore Fort

This is probably the most charming and grand forts in entire Pakistan. Covering an area of 20 hectares, the size and structure that the fort has, was constructed by Emperor Akbar between 1556 and 1605. The succeeding emperors have all contributed to the styling of the fort; thus you can see different architectural ideas incorporated in Lahore Fort. Also known as 'Shahi Quila' among locales, the main attraction inside the fort are Sheesh Mahal, Alamgiri Gate, Naulakha pavillion and Moti Masjid. The fort was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in the year 1981. The fort has some really wonderful and well maintained gardens all around the fort which further add to the beauty of the fort.
