Lahore is known for its culture, food, traditions and for the warm-hearted nature of Lahoris. Today it’s informally known as the food and culture capital Pakistan, and there is a variety of delicious, desi food in Lahore. And while they say “jinnay Lahore nai wekhaya o jamya nai” (you haven’t been born yet if you haven’t seen Lahore). Being a born Lahori, I too strongly agree with this statement.
