Lahore has lots of
historical places but Masjid Wazir Khan one of the best which I like most. Its
fresco art and architecture is marvelous. There is no any other example like
this place in Lahore. Masjid Wazir Khan was built in seven years, starting
around 1634–1635 AD, during the reign of the Mughal Emperor Shah Jehan. It was
built by Hakim Shaikh Ilm-ud-din Ansari, a native of Chiniot, who rose to be
the court physician to Shah Jahan and a governor of Lahore. The mosque is
inside the Inner City and is easiest accessed from Delhi Gate. The mosque
contains some of the finest examples of Qashani tile work from the Mughal period.
