Outside the large Alamgiri gate, which was built by Aurangzeb on the western side of the fort, stands a garden known today as the Hazuri Bagh.
This Sikh-period garden was built in a space that was formerly a caravanserai between the fort and the Badshahi mosque (built by Aurangzeb in 1673).
Although not a Mughal garden per se, the Hazuri Bagh reminds us that Ranjit Singh and other Sikhs had a deep appreciation for the Mughal garden tradition (if not for their marble structures or mosques).

THE garden between the Lahore Fort and the Badshahi Mosque is known as Hazuri Bagh.
The old folk in the walled city still jokingly call it the “Jee hazuri bagh”, and they point out to the grave of Sir Sikander Hayat in the garden who they claim was the chief “flatterer” of the British rulers.
It seems that the garden was named after the family, not one person, all of whom acquired the name Hazuri in Lahore, being described as ‘hazoor’ as is normally the manner in which such people are addressed.
