Mohammad Z. A Dr. Shaukat M. Maliha Khalid Sumbal Shahbaz Muti-ul-Haq Amna Bashi Article DOI: www.doi.org/10.53700/jrap3012021_4 ABSTRACT A country is mainly identified by its cultural heritage. Built form is a means of expressing this heritage in a tangible form Haduwri Bagh barhdari is a magnificent monument of its times. The paper aims to study the architectural features of the barhdari to better understand the architecture of the monument. The objective is to identify and differentiate the elements of Mughal and Sikh Architecture through a case study analysis. Haduwri Bagh barhdari, is located on the west of Alamgiri Gate of Lahore Fort and east of Badshahi Mosque entrance gateway. The barhdari occupies a central position of the Haduwri Bagh making it a perfect symmetrical structure which is in no way dissonant with respect to its context. Even being constructed in Sikh period, barhdari features typical Mughal architectural elements making it doubtful that in which era it was constructed. The paper focuses on the study and analysis of architectural features and materials of the Monument which lies in the midst of Haduwri Bagh, Lahore Fort. This paper is an effort to highlight the fact that despite of being constructed in the Sikh period, the barhdari features typical Mughal architectural elements speaking of cross fertilization of architectural elements. Keywords: Haduwri Bagh barhdari, Sikh Architecture, Monument, Mughal Architecture, Lahore | |||||
