HIRAN MINAR TRAVEL GUIDE


The area around Hiran Minar, 45 Km outside Lahore, was once a famous hunting resort of Emperor Jehangir. Hiran Minar (literally translated as ‘deer watch tower’) is a 03-storey monument built by the Emperor in the early 17th century and dedicated to the memory of his pet deer Mansraj. It has an artificial pond and four small pavilions, which were added after the minaret. The neighboring village of Sheikhupura is famous for its dancing horses and camels.
