I traveled to Wagah on a local bus from the train station, so the locals quickly adopted me and wanted to show me the best of Wagah. This was definitely a great experience, unlike being with the other tourists in the VIP seats up-front. Try to arrive very early on the weekends though when the tribunes are totally packed.

Get there early and soak up the atmosphere. It it the nearest you'll get to the feeling of a game of international cricket in Pakistan, which clearly is a shame as the national pride and jingoism is a privilege to witness. Shout "Pakistan.....Zinderbad" and repeat until your hoarse! Awesome experience

It is quite appalling to be a witness to this pathetic display of what can only be called military tourism. The irony of the term itself should not be lost on anyone with intelligence even slightly above that of the herd. Otherwise if one wants to go ahead and subject oneself to state indoctrination of the highest order then one... More

Every evening when the sun sets there is zealous parade of Army jawans on both sides of the border and thousands of Indians and Pakistanis witness it from their respective galleries. I have had the opportunity to cross this border by bus and the reception that awaits you on either side is really heart warming.

The atmosphere here is quite energetic and antagonistic (if youre into such things). For many of you this may be your entry point into Lahore (and Pakistan for that matter). Many will leave for India through here. The evening gate closing ceremony and the charged atmosphere is famous. One of the strongest rivalries exist on this border and the show... More

I had the opportunity in January to travel around Pakistan for 2 weeks by myself. Most people thought I was crazy, but I love adventure and I had some contacts in Pakistan arrange things for me. One of the stops was the Wagah Border. I didn't get to see the raising of the flag but did get to see the... More

A great way to spent the evening and see the flag lowering ceremony at dusk. The crowd is cheeringful at both sides of the border and you see both border forces performing a sychronized movement.

Great for families and anyone to go to. However one problem as ladies have to go through and sit on one side and male on the other side. Went in October 2012 and was jam packed. Best time to go is in the evening before sunset only approx 15 minutes drive from Lahore. Great views and legendry rivalry which gets... More
