00:00:09,647 --> 00:00:10,387
Alright, Kids!

2
00:00:10,427 --> 00:00:12,567
Are you ready for Lahore's

3
00:00:12,630 --> 00:00:13,240
most iconic landmarks?

4
00:00:18,934 --> 00:00:20,294
You are so stupid Sam! Haha!

5
00:00:22,877 --> 00:00:24,837
Students! What is happening!? Behave!

6
00:00:25,013 --> 00:00:28,113
I will ask you questions and let’s see who knows

7
00:00:28,248 --> 00:00:31,798
the most about these historical monuments!

8
00:00:39,776 --> 00:00:43,036
This, my dear students, is the Lahore fort

9
00:00:43,039 --> 00:00:45,369
This was built in 11th century. Can anyone

10
00:00:45,370 --> 00:00:46,580
tell who built this grand establishment?

11
00:00:46,877 --> 00:00:49,637
Yes! It was built by Mahmud of Ghazni

12
00:00:49,838 --> 00:00:52,758
It was entirely rebuilt in 17th century

13
00:00:53,022 --> 00:00:54,962
And who lived here for the first four decades

14
00:00:55,104 --> 00:00:56,384
of the 19th century?

15
00:00:56,608 --> 00:00:58,998
Founder of Sikh Empire, Maharaja Ranjit Singh.

16
00:00:59,202 --> 00:01:02,592
After he took Lahore from

17
00:01:02,638 --> 00:01:04,718
the Bhangi Misl in 1799,

18
00:01:04,737 --> 00:01:06,657
he started living here.

19
00:01:11,071 --> 00:01:14,231
Bravo Sam! You are being impressive today.

20
00:01:14,335 --> 00:01:16,455
The fort was later passed to British

21
00:01:16,476 --> 00:01:18,226
colonialists after they annexed Punjab.

22
00:01:23,139 --> 00:01:25,969
So, the next landmarks are Gurudwara Dera Sahib

23
00:01:25,969 --> 00:01:27,999
and Samadhi of Ranjit Singh.

24
00:01:30,838 --> 00:01:33,188
I bet Sam knows about this as well! Haha!

25
00:01:36,437 --> 00:01:38,497
It is related to one of Sikh gurus

26
00:01:38,828 --> 00:01:40,808
That is obvious! But which one

27
00:01:40,967 --> 00:01:42,887
and what's the history behind it?

28
00:01:43,183 --> 00:01:45,493
It is the place where Guru Arjan Dev,

29
00:01:45,842 --> 00:01:47,972
Fifth guru of Sikhism died in 1606.

30
00:01:48,100 --> 00:01:50,010
Behind it is Samadhi of Ranjit Singh on

31
00:01:50,161 --> 00:01:52,301
the spot where he was cremated in

32
00:01:52,347 --> 00:01:53,457
the 19th century.

33
00:01:53,914 --> 00:01:55,894
Marvellous! Seems like we have a

34
00:01:56,035 --> 00:01:57,575
history buff among us.

35
00:02:20,737 --> 00:02:21,467
This is…?

36
00:02:21,717 --> 00:02:24,217
So beautiful, it is making my heart full.

37
00:02:25,821 --> 00:02:27,511
This is Badshahi Mosque.

38
00:02:27,655 --> 00:02:30,765
It was commissioned by Aurangzeb in 1671

39
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,810
to mark his victory against

40
00:02:32,863 --> 00:02:34,763
the Maratha king Chhatrapati Shivaji.

41
00:02:38,341 --> 00:02:39,241
Absolutely right, Pinky!

42
00:02:39,345 --> 00:02:41,865
It's the second largest mosque in Pakistan.

43
00:02:45,670 --> 00:02:47,830
The next landmark is Hazuri Bagh Baradari.

44
00:02:47,957 --> 00:02:50,177
It was built by Maharaja Ranjit Singh,

45
00:02:50,318 --> 00:02:52,108
Sikh ruler of Punjab in 1818 to celebrate

46
00:02:52,188 --> 00:02:53,838
his capture of the Koh-i-Noor diamond from

47
00:02:53,890 --> 00:02:55,300
Shuja Shah Durrani in 1813.

48
00:02:58,492 --> 00:02:59,622
This feels magical.

49
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,160
You can see all four monuments from here

50
00:03:02,191 --> 00:03:04,521
surrounding us from everywhere.

51
00:03:15,062 --> 00:03:16,982
Sam! Sam! How do you know everything?

52
00:03:17,782 --> 00:03:19,642
I’m the only one who doesn’t know anything

53
00:03:23,287 --> 00:03:24,637
I will tell you! It is simple.

54
00:03:24,888 --> 00:03:27,748
Wikipedia has answer to all your questions

55
00:03:28,041 --> 00:03:30,361
I noticed him using Wikipedia all day long

56
00:03:30,513 --> 00:03:31,783
It is amazing!

57
00:03:41,719 --> 00:03:43,629
I use Wikipedia to learn about our class

58
00:03:43,749 --> 00:03:46,559
lessons of history, geography and science.

59
00:03:46,828 --> 00:03:49,198
And you know what's the best part?

60
00:03:49,290 --> 00:03:51,000
it’s available in Punjabi!!

61
00:03:52,697 --> 00:03:55,047
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

62
00:03:55,166 --> 00:03:57,466
where browsing is learning!
