In a busy Pakistani bazaar, there was a special old arched gateway called Gitthian Porian. It was a beautiful piece of architecture in the heart of Baghbanpura, Lahore, representing the history and culture of the local community. However, as time moved forward, a new market was built in its place, changing the area forever. In 2014, I had the chance to take a photo of this significant arched gateway.
