The Capital Lahore has been the seat of learning and power for centuries. Situated on the left bank of the river Ravi - one of the five rivers of Punjab - the city has the largest number of well preserved monuments of agricultural and historical value. Punjab consists mostly of plains north and south of the ancient Salt Range which runs from East to West. Its economy is agro-based and it has world's largest and the most efficient network of canals.
Punjab is known for a great variety of Arts and Crafts from the blue tiles of Multan to the wood work of Chiniot as well as industrial units. It's land of manly games, of sturdy pehalwans, of robust cattle and dairy farms, and is known for haunting music.
