The best Museum in Pakistan, housed in an attractive artistic style, the Lahore Museum was established in 1894 in the historical city of Pakistan, Lahore. It has been regarded as the one of the major museums of South Asia. Lahore Museum, also known as Central Museum, gloriously stands on the famous Shahrah-e-Quaid-e-Azam, previously known as The Mall Road, opposite to 100-year old Allama Iqbal Campus of South Asia’s famous Punjab University.
Blended with the elements of old tradition of Mughal architecture, the Museum is conspicuous among all the structures build during the British period on Shahrah-e-Quaid-e-Azam. It is in fact Pakistan’s largest museum and holds the country’s richest cultural and historical materials. The foundation stone was laid by Prince Albert Victor, Prince of Wales, while the father of famous writer Rudyard Kipling, John Lockwood Kipling, was one of the famous curators of the museum and the novel Kim was set in the vicinity of the Lahore Museum.
