Shahi Hammam, Royal bathhouse in Old City, Lahore, Pakistan.

The Shahi Hammam features three distinct sections for bathing, including dressing areas, warm baths, and hot baths, spread across multiple chambers with domed ceilings.

Built in 1635 under Emperor Shah Jahan's reign, the bathhouse served as an endowment to maintain the adjacent Wazir Khan Mosque through collected entrance fees.

The interior walls display Persian-influenced Mughal frescoes with geometric patterns and floral designs, representing the refined artistic preferences of royal patrons.

The bathhouse opens daily for visitors, with guided tours available that explain the functioning of different chambers and their historical bathing purposes.

Natural light enters through ceiling apertures, illuminating the bathing chambers through an advanced engineering system developed during Mughal times.
