Baradari of Kamran Mirza (Urdu: کامران کی بارہ دری; Kāmrān kī bārɘdɘrī) is a summer pavilion (baradari) in Lahore, Pakistan. It was built in 1540 by Kamran Mirza, a son of first Mughal emperor Babur, and a brother of the second Mughal emperor Humayun. The building is believed to be the oldest existing Mughal structure in Lahore,[1][2] and is the only garden in Lahore's Shahdara Bagh area that was not converted into a funerary monument.[3]
