Day 3 :

Mansions and Museum Treasures

10:00 AM – Mubarak Haveli: Gather at this historic haveli. Since the tour is already in motion (Day 3), we have reduced the "gathering time" to focus on the history of the Koh-i-Noor diamond and its spiritual significance. (Duration: 30 mins)
10:30 AM – Haveli Nau Nihal Singh: Walk to the finest example of Sikh-era architecture. As this is now a government school, this time slot works well to view the intricate frescos and architecture without disrupting classes too much. (Duration: 40 mins)
11:10 AM – Fakeer Khana Museum: Explore the private collection of the Fakeer family. This is a dense museum, so we have allocated nearly an hour to ensure the Sikh and Mughal artifacts are appreciated properly. (Duration: 50 mins)
12:00 PM – Haveli Barood Khana: Visit the 18th-century "Gunpowder House." A quick but meaningful stop to see the residence and learn about its transformation into a cultural hub. (Duration: 30 mins)
12:30 PM – Transit to Mall Road (AC Vehicle): Board your AC vehicle near the gate (likely Bhati or Delhi Gate) for a cool and comfortable drive to Mall Road. This avoids the heat and fatigue of a rickshaw ride. (Duration: 30 mins)
01:00 PM – Lahore Museum Exploration: A guided tour of the country's largest museum. You still have a solid 2 hours here to cover the key galleries:
The Fasting Buddha (Gandhara Art)
The Islamic Gallery
The Sikh Gallery (Duration: 2 hours)
03:00 PM – Conclusion: The tour concludes promptly at the Museum. (Refreshments can be grabbed quickly at the Museum cafe during the last 15 minutes of the exploration window if needed).
