These used to be shops. 22 in total, in two parallel rows with brick-paved passage in between. Shops were integral part of the mosque and first ever of it's kind in Mughal history.

Thank you for the update sir. Looking forward to people contributing more to thread in ways of correcting me, adding to what I've said and adding some findings of their own too

The whole alley under construction. Pipes being put and workers busy as life goes on this part of Lahore as usual. Some shops close because of unavailability of space to stand

Thank you sir. A lot more great stuff coming soon. taking it slow so that more people can see it. Uploading at once seems to make the thread dead after some time :S
Much obliged sir

Finally some of the pictures I was expecting. I love seeing pictures from daily life not the subject of normal photographers...

Thank you sir for your views. Agreed! the normal daily life thing being captures is always better than the same thing being captured by everyone again and again
though some repetition will still be there

The taste of food in the subcontinent comes from these spices

2 things invited the Britishers. First being the spices and second being the stupidity of Mughals and their extravagent lifestyle. While Europe was going through Industrial Revolution, we were making buildings for 'Ayaash Mahauls' instead of Educational Institutes.
