Kashmiri Gate (Urdu: کشمیری دروازه, Kashmiri Darwaza) is one of the thirteen gates of Walled City of Lahore in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. The gate gets its name as it faces in the direction of Kashmir. Inside there is a shopping area and market that is called "Kashmiri Bazaar" and a girls' college. This college, built upon an old haveli belonging to a Shah, is a beautiful example of Mughal architecture.
