ABSTRACT

I have said all that is necessary to bring a sketch of this quarter before travelled eyes. As to those who have hitherto been unable to cross the seas in search of colour, scent and life, I should not recommend them to commence the quest in Lahore. ere is nothing distinctive about it. e average tourist putting up at Faletti’s Hotel does so for two reasons: one, because he wishes to see the Golden Temple, distant from Lahore about an hour by train; and, two, because the accommodation at Amritsar is what Murray describes as “poor.”
