Hiran Minar

Located in shekhupura, Hiran Minar is an early Mughal era complex that was completed in the 17th century. It is also known as “The deer Tower.” The complex was built by Emperor Jahangir to honor his pet antelope named Mansraj. 

The Hiran Minar is located in Sheikhupura, a city to the northwest of Lahore. Another famous historical place located near the Hiran Minar is the Sheikhupura Fort, which also dates from the early 17th century. Both sites are accessible from Lahore via the M2 Motorway.

The structure of the complex is also very interesting. It consists of four minarets that are 30 feet in length. The complex also has a massive pool and a pavilion giving it more beauty and grace.
