Living in Lahore city or visiting it alone is not enough to make you a true Lahori unless you have enjoyed all its perks which gradually make you an epitome of the joy this city offers. You are required to dive deep in this city’s majesty and let it’s charm turn you into one of it’s devotees. After all, Lahore is not something to leave you unaffected of the magic it keeps.
Here are a few things to test whether you are a true Lahore aficionado.
1. You have offered Eid prayer at Badshahi Mosque.
2. Visiting the Sozo Water Park or taking a dip in Canal are your ultimate summer fun-goals.
3. You have always wanted to ride ‘The Discovery’ but never mustered the courage to.
4. Your defense day or independence day is incomplete without visiting Wagah border to watch the flag-changing Ceremony.
5. You have traveled via Metro Service for the first time and bragged about it to those who haven’t.
6. Halwa-Puri, Butt kay Chanay and Nihari are a compulsion in your Sunday breakfast.
7. Alhamra Art Center is your favorite spot to feed your ethnic and artistic hunger.
8. You end up eating loads of stuff from Food Street on your way home after an Anarkali shopping-spree.
9. You have spent a day exploring old Lahore, GCU, KEMU, Lahore Museum and Library which left you “Awed!”
10. People make fun of your Lahori accent but you never mind.
11. You have been to ‘Jashn-e-Baharan’ festival and asked a palmist to tell your future.
12. You know that Jail Road is the ‘A1 poondi spot’.
13. Eating ‘Rahu machli’ followed by a treat of “Gratto” or “Qulfi” is your weekend special.
14. Some of your close relatives live near ‘Data Darbar’ or ‘Bilal Ganj’.
15. Most of all, you are a Lahori because you like to argue with Karachites that your biryani is better than their biryani.
