見どころ
Kaiserbagh Palace indeed did not have any parallel anywhere in the world. Kaiserbagh Palace Complex was in fact the most well planned works of grandeur by Wajid-Ali-Shah, the last ruler of Awadh, who himself was a great connoisseur of art in all its forms and the same innate personality reflected in his palace. Kaiserbagh later became a victim of British revenge, after the failed uprising in 1858, when the British recaptured sieged Lucknow and the ruler Wajid-Ali-Shah was deposed to Calcutta. As a consequence and revenge of the toughest time that the British forces had here, Kaiserbagh was unmindfully demolished. Today sadly, only a few structures remain to be seen and it is indeed very hard to imagine that once it was, the world’s most beautiful palace complex. On this walking tour we explore the Kaiserbagh Palace Complex, reconstruct the area with the help of old pictures and maps and as a cherry on the cake, we treat you over a cup of tea

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.
