LAHORE:

The Walled City of Lahore Authority (WCLA) has successfully completed 70% of the conservation work on the historic Anarkali Tomb, marking a significant achievement in the preservation of one of Lahore’s most iconic Mughal-era monuments.

The restoration project, which commenced in July 2024, is being executed at a cost of Rs124 million. It is expected to be completed by June 2026. According to WCLA officials, the aim of the project is to restore the tomb’s original architectural features while ensuring the structural integrity and long-term preservation of the site.

Key components of the restoration work completed so far include full structural reinforcement of the building, 90% completion of internal and external lime plastering, 80% completion of stucco tracery (decorative plaster work), and 70% progress in traditional Ghalib Kari and Muqarnas Kari—ornamental ceiling techniques rooted in Mughal craftsmanship.

The upcoming phase of the project will focus on flooring and fresco painting. WCLA is working closely with heritage experts to study original frescoes that were discovered at the site, ensuring that the restoration work remains historically accurate and faithful to the tomb’s original design.

Speaking on the project’s importance, Tania Qureshi, Director of Media & Marketing at WCLA, stated, “Restoring the Anarkali Tomb is not just about preserving a monument it’s about reviving our cultural identity. We are committed to using traditional materials and techniques, with the help of master craftsmen, to ensure authenticity and quality.”

The Anarkali Tomb is a significant part of Lahore’s Mughal heritage, and the restoration effort is being seen as an essential step in preserving the city’s rich history. The project is also expected to make the tomb a major cultural tourism attraction once fully restored, offering both residents and international visitors a chance to experience Lahore’s vibrant Mughal legacy.
