Lahore Canal runs through the east of the city of Lahore. The 37 miles (60 km) long waterway built by the Mughals and upgraded by the British in 1861) is an important part of the city's cultural heritage.[1]
The canal, aside from its importance in irrigation purposes, forms the centre of a unique linear park that serves as one of the longest public green belts and popular recreational destination spots. The average depth of the Canal is 5 feet (1.5 m) and it is bounded by roads on either side called 'Canal Bank Road'. On local and national festivals, the canal is illuminated with lights and decor.
