Considered the cultural hub of Pakistan, Lahore is home to numerous heritage sites that span centuries, connecting the city's rich past with its vibrant present. Historic structures such as the Lahore Fort, Wazir Khan Mosque, and the Shahi Hammam stand as enduring symbols of the opulence synonymous with the Mughal Empire, which left behind an enchanting legacy of intricate art and architecture. Years of neglect, however, have caused the gradual decay of these majestic symbols. The Walled City of Lahore Authority (WCLA), in collaboration with the Aga Khan Cultural Service – Pakistan (AKCS-P), has launched restoration efforts using traditional techniques. The mammoth task of restoring these sites built with diverse materials and employing a range of architectural and artistic methods is led by a versatile team of experts, including fine artists, architects, and craftspeople.
