The city that I live in is Lahore. Lahore has 

always been my home and it always will be 

because I love it and think it’s the best city in 

Pakistan. I live with my mother and her 

parents in my grandfather’s house. It is a 

really big house in DHA phase 1, one of the 

most elite residential areas in Lahore. 

In Lahore there is not a lot of places 

to take rides or play games. I think 

that there should be bicycling tracks 

for children to ride their bikes on 

otherwise children will ride on the 

roads and if there is a car coming at 

full speed then the child may even die. 

They should also have more sports clubs 

with more fun and sporty activities.

Lahore is also famous for its historical 

monuments, such as the Lahore fort. The 

Lahore fort was built on the commands of the 

great Mughal emperor Akbar (known as Akbar 

the great) Lahore fort is also known as the 

“Shahi Qila” in local language.   Lahore is also 

famous for the Shalimar gardens which are 

beautiful in the spring time. The tallest building 

in Lahore is called Minar-e-Pakistan, one may 

even think that it looks a lot like the Eifel tower, 

it may not be as clean but it is surely 

breathtaking!

Regardless of all the lack of fun, one the most 

disturbing problems in Lahore is that lots of 

people in Lahore do not have enough money to 

even buy food or clothes. There are many 

homeless people who come out on the roads 

begging for money. Sometimes I feel really 

sorry for them. I think that our government 

should do something about providing them 

basic necessities in life because lots of people 

are dying due to starvation and heat strokes 

that happen usually in the hot summer months.

Lahore is famous for its dining and the people 

here (including myself) love to eat and eat and 

eat! One of Lahore’s most popular foods is aloo 

keema, daal chawal and Pulao. One can find 

these in many of Lahore’s restaurants. 

In Lahore we speak lots of languages such as 

Punjabi, Urdu and English. In every private 

school in Lahore they teach Urdu or Punjabi 

nearly every day 1 million kids learn go to 

school.

Built in 1872, Lahore zoo is one of the oldest 

zoos in the world. 

It is home to many exquisite animals 

such as lions, birds, parrots and 

tigers. It is one of the most exotic 

and biggest zoos in Lahore. Dating over 

150 years back, it is still one of the 

most exciting places for children to 

visit.
