It all started in the 1960s when the work on the Liberty Market project began. It was being developed as the core shopping district of modern Lahore, which was already embracing new development trends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Liberty Market was planned and constructed to have the same charm and appeal as some of the city\u2019s oldest bazaars including Shah Almi, Anarkali, and Ichhra. However, to differentiate it from these ancient marketplaces, the project was planned with newer development patterns, which intended to breathe new life into the city\u2019s shopping scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Liberty Market Hasn\u2019t Changed Much in Decades<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A lot of traders, retailers, and shopkeepers have been successfully running their businesses here for decades. Most of the shops in this marketplace deal in clothing and accessories, especially for women. You can also spot some roadside eateries and food kiosks, which serve a wide variety of street food to shoppers and visitors alike. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The market remains packed with the public six days a week during business hours, except for Sundays and public holidays when most of the shops are closed. Even when compared to the old times, not much has changed in the main Liberty Market since the 1960s. Only the night lights in the market have become much brighter as shops and eateries now have sign boards with LED lights. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beautification of Liberty Roundabout was carried out recently (Credits: Facebook \/ PakWheels)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Owing to its unique shape, Liberty Market is also commonly known as a horseshoe-shaped or D-shaped market. It is located on Noor Jehan Road in Lahore, which intersects with Main Boulevard Gulberg<\/a> at Liberty Chowk. This roundabout is also a very popular landmark in the vicinity. In fact, local shop owners and retailers here treat it as a symbol of pride for their businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The provincial government has worked on several noteworthy projects to beautify the city of Lahore by uplifting its existing infrastructure. The beautification of Liberty Roundabout was also carried out under the same initiative. As shown in the picture above, the surroundings of this very famous roundabout have been painted in multi colours. It also has a fountain that beautifully lights up at night and a well-maintained park surrounding it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The authorities have also renamed Liberty Chowk to \u2018Rainbow Square\u2019 in the latter half of 2020, However, this initiative was not welcomed by a majority of the locals here. According to them, this roundabout serves as a monumental symbol, reminiscent of the good old times. Calling it by a new name would make it hard for them to relate it to the memories they and their forefathers have had with this place in all these years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As discussed, Liberty Market is more famous among women than men. It is because most of the shops here deal in clothing items, pieces of jewellery, cosmetics, and different types of accessories for women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
