The Walled City of Lahore (Urdu: اندرون شہر, Inner City), also known as Old City, forms the historic core of Lahore, Pakistan. The city was established around 1000 CE in the western half of the Walled City, which was fortified by a mud wall during the medieval era.The origins of Lahore are vague. According to carbon dating evidence from archaeological finds in the Lahore Fort, settlement in region have existed as early as 2,000 BCE. Lahore had many names throughout its history. Mohallah Maulian represents one of the two most probable sites of first the original Lahore.The Walled City rose in prominence after being selected as the Mughal capital, which resulted in construction of the Lahore Fort - now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as well as the citys new reinforced walls. The Walled City was bestowed with numerous monuments during the Mughal era, with some of Lahores most iconic structures being located in the Walled City, such as the lavishly decorated Wazir Khan Masque, the massive Badshahi Masque, and the Shahi Hammam. Under Sikh rule, the city was again selected as capital, and the Walled City again rose in prominence with numerous religious buildings built in the Walled City at the time, including the Samadi of Rajit Singh, and the Greudwera Janam Astan Ram Das.The Walled City today remains the cultural heart of Lahore, and is home to many of its tourist attractions. In 2012, the Pilot Urban Conservation and Infrastructure Improvement Project—the Shahi Guzargah Project was launched in order to restores a section of Shahi Guzargah (Royal Passage) between the Wazir Khan Mosque and Delhi Gate under the management of the Walled CityofLahoreAuthority. The first phase of the project was completed in 2015 with support from the governments of Norway and the United States of America.

Experience true essence of Lahore!
Don’t confuse this gate with the main entrance of Lahore Fort, Akbari Gate. Here I am telling you the story of the Walled City’s Akbari Gate which was named after the Mughal King Jalal-ud-Din Muhammad Akbar who was the third Mughal Emperor. From 1584 A.D. to 1598 A.D. Akbar made Lahore his headquarters and the fort was re-built with burnt bricks. That was the time when he added the thirty feet high city wall and thirteen gates. When the Sikh took over Punjab, Maharaja Ranjit Singh rebuilt the wall in 1812 and surrounded it with a deep broad ditch but the gates were there. Akbari Gate and the food grain market inside it both were named after Akbar as they were established in the same period. Another Akbari Gate is of the Lahore Fort which was the main entrance to the fort until the Alamgiri Gate was added by Aurangzeb Alamgir the successor of Shah Jahan.Coming to the Akbari Gate of walled city Lahore, the original Mughal era gate was demolished when the British took over Punjab. Later in 1900s the gates were reconstructed by the British but the wall was demolished and a circular road with a garden was built which still exist today. In 1947, there were fierce riots in the city of Lahore that led to the destruction of many gates but Akbari Gate is said to survive till 1960s. The gate was completely destroyed and pulled down but the only tavern (inn) attached to it was left. The walls of the tavern were attached with the gate but there is no sign of the gate now, and even the location of the gate is lost. However, the Akbari Gate police station is housed in the old building of the inn. You can always go there and take a look at it while imagining its past glory. This Gate was located on the eastern side of the walled city between Delhi Gate and Mochi Gate of walled city and it is easily accessed from the circular road.
