This capital of Uttar Pradesh is sometimes overlooked by travellers but it offers plenty of sights to visit and is famed throughout India for its food. Central Lucknow has wide boulevards, monuments, parks and gardens. Visit the prestigious boarding school, La Martiniere. This was built by Frenchman Claude Martin as his palatial home.

Rumi Darwaza

The Siege of Lucknow lasted 147 days and claimed the lives of 2197 defenders. See the tombs of Nawab Sadat Ali Khan and his wife. The architecture is an example of Indo-Syrian style. One of the well known sites of Lucknow is the Asafi Imambara. It was built in 1775 by Nawab Asaf-ud-Daula. At the time a famine broke out in the city. It is said that the people would not accept alms so the Nawab began the construction of this Imambara Complex to provide employment to his people. The complex has a hall. a mosque, gardens and a step well. Also you can find a labyrinth to the left of the central hall. It leads to a network of narrow passageways that wind their way inside the upper floors of the structure and lead out to rooftop balcones. The Rumi Darwaza is said to be a copy of an entrance gate in Instanbul.
