Gujranwala Punjabi, Urdu: گوجرانوالا is a city in Punjab, Pakistan,
Gujranwala (Punjabi, Urdu: گوجرانوالا) is a city in Punjab, Pakistan, that is located north of the nearby provincial capital of Lahore. The city is Pakistan's 7th most-populous metropolitan area, and its 5th most populous city proper. Founded in the 18th century, Gujranwala is a relatively modern town compared to the many nearby millennia-old cities of northern Punjab. The city served as the capital of the Sukerchakia Misl state between 1763 and 1799, and is the birthplace of the founder of the Sikh Empire, Maharaja Ranjit Singh.
Gujranwala is now Pakistan's third largest industrial centre after Karachi and Faisalabad,and contributes 5% of Pakistan's national GDP. The city is part of a network of large urban centres in north-east Punjab province that forms one of Pakistan's mostly highly industrialized regions.Along with the nearby cities of Sialkot and Gujrat, Gujranwala forms part of the so-called Golden Triangle of industrial cities with export-oriented economies.
