'also see an essay on an accident'Though the benefits of city life are many,there are also certain demerits of this life.Daily life in a big city like Lahore is ever so busy and exciting.The busiest parts of the day are called peak hours.The rush of traffic in the morning,at midday and in the early evening is at its peak.The big urban transports buses,wagons,cars ,coaches,private transport vehicles,taxi cabs,motor cycles,tongas and rehras pass up and down from morning till late at night.At peak hours the noise of the passing traffic is so high that two persons cannot hear each other.The busiest and the terribly noisy spots in Lahore are the Minar-e-Pakistan,Badamibagh,Bhati gate,Mochi gate,railway station,regal crossing,Laxmi Chowk and Multan road.
Important buildings like the Lahore high court,g.P.O.,museum,Jinnah hall,Punjab university,masjis shuhada,the assembly chambers,Wapda house,the zook,Al-Hamra,Quaid-e-Azam library,governor house,aitchison college,shopping centers,foreign banks, are situated on the shahra-I-QuaideAzam.This main avenue is remarkably clean and green.There is practically no dust and its pavements are crowded with people hurrying to and fro.Traffic policemen are always on duty here and they regulate the heavy traffic efficiently.Well over a hundred thousand vehicles and half a million people pass up and down this busy thorough-fare in a single day.
Local and foreign tourist traffic to ancient sites like Badshahi mosque,the fort and Noor Jehan mausoleums and the Shalimar garden is also quite heavy.
Life in a big city like Lahore is a whirl of activities.On the other hand, broken streets,stray dogs,ill-smelling slums,stagnation,soaring crimes and stickening pollution are the sore signs of city life as well.
