Bab e Pakistan is a historical place. This is yhe place where first camp for refugees was placed.All refugees who came from all over the India at time of partisan in 1947 stayed at this camp.In 1991 mian Mihammad nawaz sharifs govt dicided to build a monument here at this place along woth a huge park and a museum as well and they name this project as BAB E PAKISATN.unfortunately this monument is being inaugurated more than three times by different govt but has not been built till today.Now a days there has been arranged a temporary MUAWAISHI MANDI for EID UL AZHA.

GoThe government should spend some money here. This place is historic and should have been maintained. There is not even a proper road leading to the office building. The office building needs a renovation as well. Please for Gods sake fix this, allocate some funds and save this historic place.The government should spend some money here.

The Bab-e-Pakistan (Urdu: باب پاكستان ‬‎) (Gateway of Pakistan) is a national monument in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan which is being built on the site of one of the major Muslim refugee camps which operated in the aftermath of independence of Pakistan.[3] The memorial was proposed in 1985, by the late Governor Ghulam Jilani Khan, and was approved immediately by the President Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq. The monument is designed by a Lahore-based architect Amjad Mukhtar,[1] who is a graduate from National College of Arts, Lahore. The monument has an area of 117 acres and will comprise a memorial block, library, park, museum, auditorium and art gallery.[4]The project experienced some difficulty in getting started because of the unstable political situation following the death of President Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq in 1988. A second attempt was made in 1991 with the support of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif but again the project was stalled.[3] The third attempt has been during the administration of President Pervez Musharraf.[5] Construction work has now started and is due to be completed by 2014.The Bab-e-Pakistan Monument is being constructed in the memory of those who sacrificed their present for the future of Pakistan. The Bab-e-Pakistan Monument at Walton has a history worthy of being recorded in a tangible form. The site of the National Monument provided the first home under the open sky for the hundreds and thousands of refugees who migrated to Pakistan in 1947. The main objective of the Monument is to commemorate mass migration of Muslims of India to newly created nation-state, struggle for freedom and to pay tribute to the millions of people who sacrificed everything they owned for the noble cause of Pakistan.The Government of Pakistan through Bab-e-Pakistan Trust has embarked upon a national level project for construction of a memorial as a tribute to the refugees who scarified everything for their freedom and for the creation of PakistanRevitalizing HistoryThe site for the Project selected at Walton Road, Lahore was the location of the first and largest refugee camp set up on August 14, 1947. The selected site measures around 117 acres.After a national level competition architectural design of Mr. Amjad Mukhtar was selected by a high level committee constituted for the purpose.In 2015, after deliberations by a committee constituted by the Chief Minister Punjab and headed by Mr. Momin Agha, Secretary Information and Culture Department, the design was modified to make it simple, sustainable and economically viable.The complex is divided into following different parts and each of them has its own significance:Memorial BlockLibraryParkMuseumAuditoriumArt Gallery

This is historical place. At the time of Partecning of sub continent Hind o Pak Muslims who migrates from India stayed at Bab e Pakistan this is the reason this place is famous and historical. Now govt of Punjab announced to build a historical memo building on this place which is stopped in the middle due to different political issues I guess. But this project has so nice things in it as it come at completion this place ll become real historical and famous and attractive place of the Lahore.

The third attempt has been during the administration of President Pervez Musharraf. Construction work has now started and was due to be completed by 2014. But not completed due to lack of political interest.On May 27, 2017 Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif Sharif approved the initial master plan of Bab-e-Pakistan here on Saturday.Shehbaz Sharif presided over a high-level meeting to review various affairs of Bab-e-Pakistan during which initial plan of the project was presented and approved by the CM.Speaking on the occasion, he said all the necessary matters have been finalised to start work on the first phase of the project. He said besides indoor and outdoor games, swimming pools should be constructed and a plan be made for introducing the modern facility of water sports.He went on saying that it is our national responsibility to imbue the generation with aims and objectives of Pakistan Movement and creation of Pakistan and added that this project is of paramount importance in this regard.He said that we got independent Pakistan due to supreme sacrifices of millions of Muslims while hundreds of thousands Muslims had to pass through the difficult phase of migration. He directed that the expansion plan of Walton Road should also be presented.Federal Minister for Railways Saad Rafique, member Punjab Assembly Yasin Sohal, chief secretary, chairman planning & development, secretary finance, commissioner Lahore division and other concerned officials were also present in the meeting.
