Walled City Lahore Authority

Welcome to the official website of the Walled City of Lahore Authority (WCLA), a dedicated beacon for the preservation and celebration of Lahore’s illustrious past and vibrant present. As the guardians of Lahore’s historical heart, our mission transcends mere conservation; we aim to breathe life into the stories and structures that define us.

The rehabilitation efforts within the Walled City are crafted meticulously, focusing not only on preserving the physical essence of our heritage but also on reviving the socio-cultural fabric that has been the soul of Lahore for centuries.

At the World Heritage site, Lahore Fort, our interventions have been both respectful and innovative, ensuring that this emblem of our identity stands proud, narrating our history to all who walk its grounds. 

Our dedication extends to the myriad of tourist sites within old Lahore, each a chapter in our collective story, now made accessible and engaging through our efforts.

Welcome to the official platform of WCLA—where the timeless beauty of Lahore’s heritage meets the energy of modern revival.

Our commitment goes beyond preserving monuments; it is about bringing history to life and creating a living experience that connects Lahore’s past, present, and future.

As custodians of this city’s cultural and architectural treasures, we strive not only for conservation but for revitalization. Each project we undertake restores the grandeur of the Walled City while honoring the traditions, stories, and spirit of its community.

At the heart of these efforts stands the iconic Lahore Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here, our conservation blends respect for history with innovation, ensuring that every restoration tells a story for generations to come.

But our vision extends far beyond the fort’s walls. From the vibrant Royal Trail to hidden courtyards and cultural landmarks, we are transforming historic spaces into accessible, dynamic destinations for both locals and visitors.

WCLA is more than an authority—it is an experience. Through guided tours, cultural activities, and curated events, we invite you to explore Lahore’s soul. This platform is your gateway to our ongoing projects, upcoming events, and the artistic spirit that defines the Walled City.

You can also connect with us virtually through interactive tours, photo exhibitions, and real- life stories that bring Lahore’s heritage closer to you, wherever you are.

As you explore, we hope you feel inspired to be part of this journey of revival. The Walled City is not just a historic landscape—it is a living testament to the resilience, culture, and passion of its people.

Thank you for visiting. Together, let us rediscover Lahore—one street, one monument, one story at a time.

Mr. Najmus Saqib
Director General, Walled City of Lahore Authority
