Peaceful and relaxing place.May become a best tourist attraction in Lahore if properly maintained and look after.There is no cafe, no washrooms, no administration, no help desk, need extra care.Lawns and Pools should be properly cleaned and maintenance

The best place for photoshoot, a beautiful historical place. If you want to visit this place you should buy a ticket of 50Rs on Ravi river. The boatsman will transport you from one end to that end where baradari is present.

Baradari of Kamran Mirza is famous tourism point in lahore.Baradari of Kamran Mirza, Kamran ki Baradari is a summer pavilion in Lahore, Pakistan. It was built in 1540 by Kamran Mirza, a son of first Mughal emperor Babur, and a brother of the second Mughal emperor Humayun. The building is believed to be the oldest existing Mughal structure in Lahore,  and is the only garden in Lahores Shahdara Bagh area that was not converted into a funerary monument. After Baburs death in 1530, Kamran Mirza seized Lahore and laid a garden in which the baradari was built in 1540. At the time of construction, the baradari was on the western bank of the River Ravi in the Shahdara Bagh region, though it now stands on an island in the middle of the river, due to shifts in the rivers course. The pavilion remained in use by Mughal royals until the 18th century.After the British annexed Punjab in 1849, the pavilion was turned into a tollhouse for boats crossing the river. It is also mentioned as Turgurhwallee Baradari in an 1867 map of Lahore, where it was shown located on the western bank of the river.Part of baradaris eastern façade had been damaged by floods by the 1850s, while the baradaris second story had also been damaged or dismantled around the same time.The pavilion sustained further damage by flooding in 1958. It was reconstructed in 1989 at a cost of 19.6 million rupees (about $1 million).After Baburs death in 1530, Kamran Mirza seized Lahore and laid a garden in which the baradari was built in 1540.

The pavilion sustained further damage by flooding in 1958. It was reconstructed in 1989 at a cost of 19.6 million rupees (about $1 million).Like all baradaris, the structure has twelve doors. The pavilion was originally two levels with 12 columns of vaulted balconies.

The baradari itself is in desolate condition but the surrounding gardens are relatively well maintained. The road leading to the baradari is absolutely awful, so its better to go by boat.

A Rear and unique art of great mugals architecture

Kamrans Baradari is the ostensibly the earliest known Mughal monument in Lahore, said to have been built by Prince Kamran in the 1520s. However, the pavilion more likely dates to the reign of Shah Jahan (1627-58) as certain architectural features such as the use of cusped arches were not employed until Shah Jahans reign. The attribution of the structure to Prince Kamran likely derived from local oral traditions which were picked up by Latif when he collected material for his comprehensive book on Lahores architectural heritage in 1892.The baradari originally stood at the edge of the Ravi river, but over time the course of the river changed and the site became an island. Sometime over the course of the centuries the river flooded, taking half the baradari along with it. As Mughal buildings are generally symmetrical, it was possible for historians to infer the design of the lost portion and it was rebuilt in 1989 at a cost of 19.6 million rupees (about $1 million USD at the time). Unfortunately, the restoration extended to the remaining half and resulted in the total effacement of its surface decoration including the few fragments of original decoration to have survived. Of the gardens, very few traces survived in the late 20th century and a new garden based partially on Mughal motifs was built to the west of the Baradari.

Needs better maintenance access from the main road. Worst thing is the graffiti on all the walls of the structure.

A very scenic and historical place near river ravi lahore, from minar e pakistan toward river ravi via gt.road an slide road just on the edge and start of river ravi leading to the way, accessible parking and then to book a cruise per person rs.50 to round of the kamran baradari, takes 15 minutes to drop and visit there a beautiful garden history and scenic 360 view of river roof top of bara dari also accessible for the view of river and bridge ravi mist visit place for peaceful environment no quality food items offered need to arrange by own april 2019.

Kamran baradari is very lovely and oldest place ..

Good placeJust at the bank of raviCut of from the worldFacilities for tourists are not enough

Such a beautiful place

Not a vast place for visit and historical building is only one. Water around it is smelly and unclear. No eatings available. Not recommended for families.

Its kind of island of river Ravi near Shahdarh town, its peice of building along with some beautiful tree like a small jungal and big grounds&gardens of guava, so you can have peaceful moments here while having veiw of river Ravi.You can take boat to visit there, also your own vehical.Its Really nice place but totally ignored by government official and destroyed by harsh weather and visitors.

Quite place you feel calm specially when you sit on the side of River Ravi and air hit on your face. But some steps must be taken by authorities are 1st one no proper track from Ravi River Bridge to Baradari and 2nd one is some peoples ruined the beauty of place by putting their compliments, signatures etc on the walls of Baradari. And major issue is some addicted person use this historical place in a negative way.

This is one of the oldest buildings from Mughal Era in Lahore.The boat ride across the river Ravi from the east Bank makes the trip worthwhile.The a Baradari itself looks mesmerizing particularly at sunset and sunrise.

Good place to spend evening here.

Historical site is well preserved and maintained, its a great recreational spot for picnic in suburbs of Lahore. Old mughal architecture and crafts work are muses for arts and literature aspirants. Wall chalking, lack of public toilets and security are main reasons I have deducted two stars from ratings.

Marvellous place to visit

Nice place to visit

Old is Gold looks different

This is a hostorical momunent situated in t ravi river but it is destroyed by locals. PTDC should put their efforts on its restoration.

If government pay attention it can be converted into a great place.

It can be most important tourist attraction of the city but unfortunately no one cares

Landmark of Mughal era. A beautiful baradari built in the river Ravi. Its located downstream to the Ravi bridge Niazi chowk. One can appraoch this place by boat and spend a beautiful there mid in the river on an island in a very scenic and quit atmosphere and environment.Its a leisure place build for do a fun bbq bone fire and music etc by mughal emperor away from the city noise in the river. It was time when river ravi was not handed over to india and it was really a river and its flow was worthseeing and much enjoyable.Its a very historic as well as beautiful place of lahore exit within the river ravi in the shape of an island.

Best cultural place ️

Photo of Baradari in 1980s and renovated in 1990s by Archeology Department. Government of Punjab.

The place is so good. It was built in 1540 by Mughal prince Kamran Mirza, a son of first Mughal emperor Babur.But the road condition towards kamran baradari is so bad.Need so much improvement.If we dont do something we lose this place in coming decades.

Fantastic place to visit ️️️

Kamrans Baradari is extremely interesting building that often gets bypassed by tourists in Lahore. The main reason this building is so fascinating is because it’s extremely old. How old? Well records suggest it was built around 1540 by Emperor Humayun’s brother Kamran Mirza. That makes it one of the oldest major buildings in the entire history of the Mughal Empire. This place is located on an island in the middle of the river so it is necessary to travel by boat to get there.

This place could be a good place for hangout, photography and shoot but it is not been maintained

Refreshment spot but structural maintenance required

Beautiful historical place in the Ravi River...

Baradari of Kamran Mirza is a summer pavilion in Lahore, Pakistan. It was built in 1540 by Kamran Mirza, a son of first Mughal emperor Babur, and a brother of the second Mughal emperor Humayun.Quite place you feel calm specially when you sit on the side of River Ravi and air hit on your face.This place is needed to improve with electricity lights and center air conditioning. Need to improve More and more.

It might be good place in past but now it is almost devastated. No proper maintenance of this amazing place. Abusive language and low standard poetry is visible all along the wall. No basic facilities like drinking water or washroom. If you plan to visit this, dont go in summer.

A lovely piece of Architecture but completely ruined by illiterate visitors , by writing on walls and not looked after properly by the local authorities. In pakistan at tourist locations all writing markers should be banned

Beautiful and historical gem of Mughal Architecture.

Tital wastage of time no proper road nothing amusing at all

It is a aplace which is more of a historical importance if you are coming from Islamabad on G T Road then you can find it in the river ravibefore entering the Lahore city but if you are coming by Motorway you can find it through ring road as it is situated in the centre of River Ravi you have to go there by boat the place is good again not recommended for lone female travelers be safe for groups its the best place

Nice place for outing

I loved this place but it needs some serious efforts for preservation

It is beautiful place located in middle of Ravi River Lahore . West side is reachable with Link road made of Mudd. East side is reachable with boat. This place is needed to improve with electricity lights and center air conditioning. Need to improve More and more.

A famous historical location between River Ravi

This is a quiet historical place with rich architecture. Usually there are very few tourists out there.Its doors and windows are grand in manufacture. Adjacent lawns and fountains add beauty to the scenery.Its not a picnic place but is a place to just go and be lost in history.Mughals constructed it to enjoy moonlight peeping from river Ravi.There is one hurdle though.You have to cross the river on a boat to and from it.Boat persons charge Rs 500 to 2000 depending upon no of people.Not advisable in summers.Winters is best time to go there

Baradri is good but ravi only contains water from gutters

Not famous place but one of ery unique places in lahore

Nice place to visit...

Good place

Historic place. Visited couple of times with Masood my Friend.Cool and calm place.

The Place has the Potential to become excellent Tourist point for the local visitors but Government authorities need to put special efforts

Ok

Its a nice place,Also historic.

Kamrans Baradari is an 500 years old place constructed in Mughal empire in India. Is is situated inside Ravi River. I visit it and found it a very good place to visit. when you will visit Lahore you should visit this place. need to renovate building as per Mughal empire standard. it is tourist attraction place. I personally like it very much.

Very beautiful place and view and historical palace

Cool place. Fun to cross the river to get there.

Survey Work for BaraDari renovation

Its awsome place for refreshment .

A very beautiful and historical place in Lahore

It is good place to visit there. Only for those who had took interest in old buildings and structures and in ancient places. Beacuse it is on the bank of ravi river u can’t directly approaches to this place u have to took a boat ride to cross river. The river and the all nearest area is bad polluted wich garbage and the waste of buffalos ans cows. There is to many animal farm are there. Government has to taken action for the cleaning service of this place.

A beautiful garden made by mughal emperor to his entertainment. It is a quite place away from noise and pollution. A boat ride is required to reach this tiny island in the river ravi. Boat owners will charge you 50 Rs per person for return trip and there is no cost for visiting the Garden though. The marble structures, pool and patterns of plantation still shows significance history.

Love place

It a unique place to visit while crossing river on boats. U must have photo session there. U will look awesome.

Well preserved place

Kamran Mirza, sometimes known simply as Kamran, (1509 – 5 (or 6) October 1557) was the second son of Babur, the founder of the Mughal Empire and the first Mughal Emperor.The only significant architectural structure built by Kamran exists today in Lahore, Pakistan. It is called Kamran ki Baradari. Bara means twelve and dar means doors. Kamran ki baradari was a twelve door building on the bank of River Ravi. The river changed its course over time, with the result that the Baradari stands not on the bank but in the waters as an island while the gardens have deteriorated.

Housekeeping should be proper

A historic place with greenery and river flowing alongside

Not safe. And no safety whole crossing river on boat. Not suitable for families.

Beautiful botanic place
