- Kamran Lashari shares anecdotes on the historic importance of the city of Lahore, it's glorious past and how it has evolved over the years, especially the intervention of Walled City Lahore Authority to restore it's glory. Kamran Lashari is the Director General of the Walled City of Lahore Authority (WCLA) where he has been heavily involved in numerous conservation projects over the years that have gone a long way in the restoration of art and culture in the vibrant city of Lahore.
Some of his most well-known conservation projects - in collaboration with the Aga Khan Trust for Culture - include the Wazir Khan Mosque, the Shahi Hammam, and the walled city of Lahore (as a whole), to name a few. Lashari also introduced street tourism to Lahore’s Old City, tourist rides via the popular ‘Rangeela Rickshaws’ and trained a number of walled city residents as tour guides.
Apart from his focus on the restoration of Lahore’s heritage sites, Kamran has organized a number of festivals and events - from culinary competitions, to performing arts festivals and a yearly photography exhibition (called ‘Wekh Lahore’). This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
Lahore is lucky to have such a son of soil who loves it with such compassion. Kamran Lashari is so proud of Lahore and he himself is Lahore's pride.
He is indeed Mohsin-e-Lahore
Attended this event and it was one of the most inspiring events that I have ever attended. I have lived in Lahore for over 22 years and I had no idea that the city was this rich in culture mainly because the over urbanization of them. It's great to see the city's cultural heritage being restored. Great work Mr. Kamran Lashari, hope that are able to see it through and be known as the restorer of the great city of Lahore.
A feast for the eyes
