The Miani Sahib Graveyard (Punjabi, ) is the largest graveyard in the city of Lahore, Pakistan. Its origins date back to the Mughal era, making it one of the oldest graveyard in the region. Miani Sahib Graveyard occupies around 1,206 kanals (60 hectares, 149 acres) of land and has a capacity of approximately 300,000 graves. It is administered by the Miani Sahib Graveyard Committee (MSGC), which was formed on 31 May 1962. The graveyard is currently facing an acute shortage of space for new burials. As of 2009, the government of Punjab has started an anti-encroachment drive to restore the space occupied illegally. ==See also== * List of cemeteries in Pakistan * List of cemeteries in Karachi * List of cemeteries in Lahore 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Miani Sahib Graveyard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
