The Miani Sahib Graveyard (Urdu: میانی صاحب قبرستان) is the largest graveyard in the city of Lahore, Pakistan. It is in the centre of Lahore. Its origins date back to the Mughal era, making it one of the oldest graveyards in the region. Miani Sahib Graveyard occupies around 1,206 Kanal area (60 hect

ares, 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. Gravediggers at the cemetery routinely bury the bodies of the newly deceased in plots that go unvisited.
