Reception

[edit]

Writing in The Express Tribune, Tara Kashif called the book "an exquisitely-designed journey of the architectural splendour of Mughal monuments in Lahore.. a visual, aesthetic celebration of the Mughal grandeur combined with a chronological, comprehensive exploratory account of the concrete vestiges of the long-lost Mughal era."[4] In Dawn, Rabela Junejo called it "neither lyrical nor poetic. On the contrary, it is a very well-researched volume referenced with supporting photographs."[5]
