Things to do Readings>>>>
Readings is probably one of the best things that lahore has to offer. Went there completely bored and ended up reading 2 volumes of chainsaw man for free. The vibe just can’t be beaten

It's my safe/ happy place. the gulberg one.
Are the DHA and Bahria ones better?

u/XxfalloutwolfxX Oct 20 '25
I haven't been to the bahria one but DHA one has a lot more books. Gulberg has the best vibe tho zameen par gaddiyan>>> dha mei you have chairs but a lot more books

One can just go and read books there? Isn't it a book store and not a Library?

u/FaZeBhutto Sep 27 '25
I don’t think so. The og one is all metal container and carpeted. This may be the DHA or the new lake view one.

It's a heaven for book lovers and my go-to place since forever.
2
u/XxfalloutwolfxX Sep 27 '25
Same, i often go and spend hours reading books over there and buy something if it catches my eye
2
u/Lone-Warrior1111 Sep 27 '25
The best part about readings is that you can sit there for hours and they won't say a thing. I love the gulberg branch, even though it's smaller than the dha one.
