What happened to Emporium Mall? It doesn’t feel family friendly anymore.

I live near Emporium Mall and my family and I have been going there for years. But lately, I’ve noticed a pretty significant change. First of all, it has become *extremely* crowded compared to how it used to be. More importantly, there seems to be a growing problem with groups of men hanging around the food court, sitting in areas where it clearly says not to sit, and openly staring at people especially women as they walk by. It’s incredibly uncomfortable!!

Malls used to be places where families, especially women, could go &spend time without constantly worrying about being ogled, harassed, or having their pictures and videos taken. They were a welcome alternative to open markets, where unfortunately this kind of behavior has become all too common. Now it feels like even malls aren’t providing that sense of safety and privacy anymore??

Why isn’t the management doing anything about this? If people are openly violating the rules, loitering in restricted areas, staring at and making women uncomfortable, or taking their pictures/videos without consent, security should be stepping in?!

Where are women supposed to go to simply exist in public without being stared at, filmed, or made to feel uncomfortable?
Seriously, what the is happening to this country?

Heyy guys anyone who has been to this uni if you could tell what kinda uni it is ? Do they have freshmen week too ?? My classes are starting in sep and idk anything about the events jn lgs

I need some decent restaurant options in Lahore (preferably around Johar Town) for a birthday dinner with family of around 10 people.

Last year we went to Kababjees restaurant (askari branch) it was good but I personally didn't find their food to my liking.

So i want to try something else. Looking for desi, bbq cuisines.

Don't suggest too pocket heavy options though.

I have Masalawala and Pind on my list but not really sure.

Also, if they have certain bank cards discounts available on their menu, it would be great.

Hey guys, I want to know what jobs in Lahore are high paying and you can get one easily?

Or any independent work ideas, through which someone can earn a good amount?

Looking for genuine opinions from people who've lived in both or know both well.

Comparing the two for a permanent family setup — buying a house, long term living, not just renting for a year or two.

Key things I'm considering:

• Business and market opportunities
• Networking — who actually lives there, what kind of people
• Property value and appreciation long term

Lahore seems better for business and has more energy. ISB seems cleaner, more planned, and better networked at a higher level. But both have real tradeoffs.

People who've actually lived in either or both — which one would you pick for the long run and why?

Are muns a luxury for the rich and the middle class doesnt matter. Like i was checking the registration fee for some muns and the cheapest one was 3500rs. dude are you serious like its an educational competition try to have some compassion for the underprivileged and the middle class. Like if i want to attend 2 MUNs in a month i would need atleast

NEED URGENT ADVICE PLS

I am going to do my A Levels in Lahore and I'm moving here from Islamabad so I don't really know about different colleges.

PLS PLS PLS give me advice about where to go.

I heard LACAS JT is good and am considering that...can anyone let me know how it is?

My subjects for A Levels will be Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Maths.

Lahore is absolutely magical, the food, the culture, the old city vibes. I'm obsessed. Heard a lot about the wealthy/open-minded crowd there and honestly most places lived up to that.

But then I went to Minar-e-Pakistan.

And that's where things got weird 💀

I'm born and raised in HK so I don't wear hijab yet, something I want to do in the future but it's tough in a non-Muslim country. That day I was fully covered in desi clothes, just no scarf. And the stares were insane.

Guys were pointing at me. Someone took a picture. One asked why I wasn't wearing hijab. Never experienced this in other cities of pak, just here.

The confusing part? I saw plenty of other girls in Lahore without hijab too. So why was it such a big deal when I was there??

Not hating on Lahore, genuinely loved it. Just need to understand why Minar-e-Pakistan specifically attracts this energy. Anyone else deal with this?? 😭

Looking for some good buffet options in Lahore. Preferably a place with a good variety and quality food, not just a huge number of dishes.

The perfume is short everywhere, where to find it

Hello, i’m planning to buy a rottweiler puppy in the next 6 months. I have absolutely no idea where to get it from. I’m doing my research on the breed. So if anyone could guide about a trusted place or whatsoever to get one in LHR. Also what should be the budget?

Hiii pls any1 tell affordable jewellery for weddings and general minimalist 1s places im a lahore resident i have tried anarkali(bano bazar) and liberty at best but i feel like there are other places as well personally liberty is heckaa expensive.

Hi, hope everyone's having a good day.

I've had my house loan approved under the new govt program through Meezan Bank and I've been looking for a house but the issue is that there's so many requirements around the property which are very hard to be fulfilled.

I've been given a list of documents required from the bank and it's very rare if any house/society has them all.

I was hoping we could start a thread or something where people in similar situation could suggest and share their findings.

Asking purely for discussion around finding the right property on the loan already approved rather than how to apply or get it approved because all existing spaces are filled with discussion about how to get your loan approved but not about finding any property.
