Baradari of Kamran Mirza | Governor of Lahore sentenced for rebellion

Did you know that Kamran Mirza was the first Mughal governor of Lahore? He was the son of the first Mughal Emperor Babur and step brother of Mughal Emperor Humayun (second Mughal emperor). It was built around 1530-1540 by Kamran Mirza and at that time the Baradari was constructed on the western bank of the Ravi, where it overlooked the walled city of Lahore. If you ever visit this place you will see it is a typical Mughal pavilion. Historic records also tell that After Babur’s death in 1530, Kamran Mirza seized Lahore and laid a garden in which the Baradari was built.

Some historians also claim that the existing Baradari is a result of later interventions made by Mughal rulers and on the other hand, there are historians who question if Kamran Mirza ever constructed a Baradari here.
