icarus May 9th, 2005, 10:00 PM It's so refreshing to see a place with so few cars :)

Thats all the new development. And work is still going on over there, so you can't take your car into the area. Once construction is complete, people would be allowed to go into the area.
You must be in Lahore to understand the traffic there. It gets pretty insane!
But trust me, once its done, it'll have lots of cars roaming around. And due to that the City Govt has also decided to build an interchange off the Lahore Ring Road (under construction) to connect to this area, in order to ease traffic movement. :)
Sultan May 9th, 2005, 10:07 PM Allama Iqbal Interional Airport (Lahore Intl Airport) - The airport is based on Mughal architecture.
