Day trip · 4h 30m· Shahdara, across the Ravi

Tombs of Shahdara

Jahangir, Noor Jahan and Asif Khan across the river

A small-group day across the Ravi to the tombs of an emperor, his empress and her brother, with a proper lunch in between. Eight seats, we drive.

Shahdara is fifteen minutes from the Fort and a world away. On the far bank of the Ravi sit three tombs: Jahangir's, the grandest Mughal monument in Pakistan, his brother-in-law Asif Khan's, stripped of its marble by the Sikhs, and Noor Jahan's, the empress who ran the empire and asked for nothing on her grave but grass.

We keep this one small. Eight seats in one vehicle, a pickup in Gulberg, and lunch on the way at a haveli or on the rooftop at Coco's Den looking at the Badshahi. Then the tombs, in order, with time to sit in Jahangir's garden and not be rushed.

This is the day trip for people who have done the Fort and want the next chapter.

  • Jahangir's Tomb and its four minarets

Where do the tours start?

Each route has its own meeting point, which we share with you once your booking is confirmed. Most walks begin in or around the Walled City.
