    Abstract:
    The Wazir Khan mosque is located in the Walled City of Lahore, along the southern side of Lahore's Shahi Guzargah, or “Royal Road.” This was the traditional route traversed by Mughal nobles and their guests on their way to royal residences at the Lahore Fort. The mosque is situated approximately 260 meters west of the Delhi Gate, where the mosque's Shahi Hammam (Royal Bath) is also located. The mosque faces both a town square, known as Wazir Khan Chowk, and the Chitta (White) Gate.
