About Gulberg
What are the main landmarks in Gulberg?
Gulberg sets its sporting and cultural markers along the same grid of avenues. Sport leads here. The National Hockey Stadium, Lahore and the neighbouring Lahore City Cricket Association Ground draw crowds through the district, while the Nishtar Park Sports Gymnasium adds an indoor arena and the O Art Space gives the streets a contemporary gallery to steer by.
The scale stays open.
What is the history of Gulberg?
Gulberg took shape as a planned residential and commercial district within the wider spread of Lahore. The grid stuck. Rather than the tight lanes of the old city, its layout ran to broad avenues and generous plots, a pattern that pulled sports grounds, offices, and galleries out along the streets over time.
The district grew outward. Gulberg has carried that open, avenue-based character, alongside markers such as the National Hockey Stadium, Lahore and the Lahore City Cricket Association Ground, through the growth of the city around it.
Where is Gulberg?
Gulberg sits within the sprawl of Lahore, Pakistan, laid out on a broad grid of avenues across the subtropical plain that surrounds the city.
