Kasur District, Administrative district in Punjab, Pakistan
Kasur District is an administrative region in Punjab positioned between natural boundaries formed by major rivers. The territory divides into four administrative subdivisions serving hundreds of villages and towns across the landscape.
The district was established as a separate administrative unit in 1976, carved from what was previously part of Lahore. Before this division, the land passed through the hands of several historic empires that shaped its character.
The district serves as a center for Sufi devotion, with sacred sites like the shrine of poet Bulleh Shah that draw pilgrims throughout the year. These places shape how local communities gather and observe their spiritual traditions.
The region connects to surrounding cities through established road networks and remains accessible throughout the year. Visitors should plan for a mix of urban centers and rural areas when traveling through the territory.
The district contains Changa Manga, the country's largest planted forest, which covers vast stretches of land with thousands of trees. This green space supports wildlife such as wolves and jackals that roam through its reaches.
