yes lahore is full of tourist attractions as it was the capital of Mughal Emperor Jehangeer and Many Others. His Shahi Mahal (Palace) is wonderful architectural work even for today.. Badshahi Mosque has very good architecture.. Minar-e-Pakistan is a good monument another good piece of architecture. Then look at the gardens of Lahore. Baghe Jinnah, Shalimar Bagh, Jallo Park, Iqbal Town Park, etc. For swimming Suzu Water Park is awesome. The baradari on the River Ravi is an awesome place to reach on boat and to spend few hours on the river. The wahga border ceremony is lovely and enegetic to watch. Fortress Stadium and Liberty are lovely places for shopping. Food is delicious at Anarkali and Gwalmandee Food Streets. IF u wanna experience the Public Transport at its Best then Hire a Rikshaw, Hats off for the one who invented tht machine..
If u get spare time after visiting these places then goto mall road for Icecream and do visit the markets of Gulberg, Defense, Model Town, lahore and also travel for few miles on the Nehar wali road. Racecourse park is lovely for evening walk and Lahore museum has some good historical items in it. The only problem with lahore is Hot Weather. SO its best to visit lahore between November to February..

On a serious note,
I have been to the following places outside of Karachi & Lahore:
Lake Saiful Malook
Kaghan/Naran
Ayubia
Nathya Gali
Murree
Bhurban
Other than the above, I have visited all the places that are worth visiting in KArachi, Lahore and Islamabad (i.e. beaches in KArachi, historic places in Lahore, etc.)

Bolten Market and Kharader are walking distance close. Chagla Street is kind of located in between Bolten and Kharader.
