Lohari Gate, Lahore

According to some historians, the old city of Lahore was originally located near Ichhra, and this gate opened towards that side.

This gate was named after the Lohar (blacksmith) community of craftsmen who made objects primarily from iron or steel.

In the distant past, caravans and travelers coming from Multan used to enter the city from this gate.

According to historians, behind Lohari Gate once stood a brick fort called Kacha Kot which was probably the first fortified city of Lahore founded by Malik Ayaz.
