The airport caters both International & Domestic flights. It is situated 4 km West
of the city. Multan is also known as Madinat-ul-Auliya because of the large number
of shrines and Sufi saints from the city. Naturally, the prime attractions are the
mausoleums of Sufi saints. It is blanketed with bazaars, mosques, shrines, and ornate
tombs. The city is famous for its handicrafts (carpets & ceramics) and cottage industries.
Multan is also an important agricultural centre. Multan features an arid climate
with very hot summers and mild winters. Local rickshaws and taxi cabs connect the
airport to the city. A few moderate to cheap hotels are available. The Airport operates
nonstop round the clock, 7 days a week.
