Chowk Masjid Wazir Khan

The Wazir Khan Chowk is a town square located in the Walled City of Lahore that is located at the main entrance of the Wazir Khan Mosque. Wazir Khan Chowk is located at the main entrance to the Wazir Khan Mosque, and is located approximately 250 meters west of the Delhi Gate. Access to the town square from Delhi Gate is through the smaller Chitta Gate. Wazir Khan Chowk features the tomb of the Sufi saint Said Soaf, and the Well of Dina Nath. In 2012, a section of Shahi Guzargah which included the Wazir Khan Chowk was restored, Wazir Khan Chowk was extensively rehabilitated by removal of 73 illegally constructed buildings, while the well of Dina Nath was also restored. Power lines along the project corridor were also placed underground. The Chitta Gate at the eastern entrance to Wazir Khan Chowk was rehabilitated. In December 2015, further efforts to restore the site were launched to lower the town square to the original depth found during the Mughal era in order to fully expose the mosque`s original facade.
