About This Tour

Pakistan's heartland holds some of the most magnificent monuments in all of Asia. Lahore — the "Heart of Pakistan" — was a jewel of the Mughal Empire and preserves three UNESCO World Heritage Sites within one city. The Lahore Fort (Shahi Qila) dazzles with its Sheesh Mahal (Palace of Mirrors) and Mughal frescoes. The Badshahi Mosque (1673) remains one of the world's largest and most beautiful mosques. Taxila, just outside Islamabad, is Pakistan's most important archaeological site — a UNESCO WHS covering 3,000 years of Buddhist, Greek, and Parthian civilization along the ancient Silk Road.
