The central attraction for any tourist. It's beautiful and unique every time you see it. But it is not the only tomb in the city of saints.

Shrine of Bahauddin Zakariya

Just a few blocks from the Shahrukh ne Alam shrine, stands this beauty. These places offer you their own kind of peace, serenity and take you back in time.

Also people pay visit (mostly on Thursdays) for "Mannat" , tying little threads around the gates hoping the saints will hear their wishes.

Damdama

Surrounding the shrines is the Qasim Bagh which has its own magnificient entrance. In Qasim Bagh lies the famous Dam Damma ( highest point in Multan ) which has recently been renovated to a museum. Hiking to the top offers a beautiful view of the entire city as shown above, includig the famous 'Ghanta Ghar'

In the Qasim Bagh are alot of vendors you can buy cultural things from, also gol gappay stands offering the famous 'Qille ke Gol Gappay'.

Just around the same place is this famous red wall (hence Khooni), it has historical importance. Nowadays mostly famous for it's extremely large-sized gol gappay, and equally delicious too!
