Highlights
Not only that Lucknow is architecturally awesome but also well planned, quite like the way a capital should be. Known as the ‘City of Nawabs’, most of the heritage monuments of the early 18th and late 19th centuries happen to be in a systematic layout as if each Nawab knew what was about to come up next. On this Heritage Walk, discover some of the buildings from the times of the Nawabs.

Itinerary
You will be picked up from your hotel and driven to Teele Wali Mosque, from where your walking tour will start. The beautiful mosque, situated on the banks of the River Gomti, was constructed in the 17th century during the reign of the Mughal Emperor, Aurangzeb. Your guide will then take you to some of the most splendid pieces of architecture dating back to the times of the Nawabs. On this walking tour we not only explore the main landmarks of the Nawabi heritage, but also visit some nooks and corners in the periphery without which the history of Lucknow would be incomplete. Listen to the tales that your guide will share with you as you explore Lucknow on this three hour tour. At the end of the tour, you will be driven back to your hotel.

About Lucknow
Lucknow, capital of Uttar Pradesh, is a city of Nawabi palaces, grand imambaras and refined Awadhi cooking beside the Gomti River.
Lucknow was the capital of the Nawabs of Awadh in the 18th and 19th centuries, who left a city of domes, gateways and gardens. The Bara Imambara, built in the 1780s, has a vast vaulted hall and an upper labyrinth, the Bhul Bhulaiya, and the Rumi Darwaza, a towering gate, stands nearby. The Chota Imambara, the Husainabad clock tower and the Residency, whose ruins carry the marks of the siege of 1857, complete a historic circuit.
