Historical heritage is a great asset of a country.The living nations always protect their historical traditions.They feel proud of these works of genius.Pakistani culture is rich in every respect.I love the whole Pakistani culture.The things that attract me the most in this respect are the historical buildings of Pakistan.Last summer,my friends and i made a program to visit the historical places of Lahore.We started from Multan and reached Lahore in the twilight of evening.We spent a night in a hotel.
The next day,we were much excited.We decided to visit the tomb of Jehangir.We hired a taxi and reached the tomb.The four minarets of the tomb were presenting a very majestic view.The tomb was surrounded by a wall.Its entrance was very beautiful.There was a park inside the wall.The park was full of the blooming flowers.They were spreading their fragrance all around.It was a very charming sight.There were some cool shady trees.Many birds were sitting in the twigs of these trees.They were chirping.
In front of tomb,there was a beautiful fountain.It was sprinkling its light shower.The drizzling of drops produced a charming music.The place in the words of S.T.Coleridge was"A savage place...holy and enchanted"Soon afterwards,we entered the edifice that contains the grave of the emperor.There we pondered over the mystery of death for sometime.The room was decorated with colorful designs.We offered "Fateha" and prayed to God to bless the emperor with eternal blessings.The building itself is a wonderful place of Muslim architecture.We went up to the terrace and had a view of the city of Lahore.It was a beautiful sight.The cool breeze and deep blue sky had a magical effect on us.We came down and sat under a tree to take some rest.We ate some eatables and drank cold drinks.We made some of the floral and mosaic designs that we had seen in the chamber of the tomb.In the evening we returned to our hotel.Our minds were full of solemn thoughts.We were pondering over the mystery of death and eternity of nature.We agreed with Shakespeare:
"In Nature's infinite book of secrecyA little I can read."
