Day 6 *** Location - Imambara Lucknow *** Cameraman - "As always***
Shaane Lucknow ….
A city of Nawabs, a city of Kebabs ..a city of culture, a
city of mannerisms and demeanor …a city of sepia tones …a city of smiles …a royal city ... my city …city of
Lucknow…
There is a famous adage that goes like this … “Muskariye ki
Aap Lucknow Mein Hain” which means smile as you are in Lucknow. And I feel this
line defines the city.
So, here is a sneak peek into 7 must see places in the city, which will tickle you to come here and realize for yourself the charm and the heritage of this place.

| Bara Imambara A tale of architecture ... an artwork of grandeur ... a depiction of royalty |

| Clock Tower |
For a happy Go Lucky at ease city, this may seem out of place..but they say it has the biggest clock of its times
 |
| Chota Imambara
A marble piece
|
 |
| Roomi Darwaza A Gateway to the Kingdom of Rulers |
 |
| British Residency |
Abode to many during the 1857 Mutiny,,still carries the scars of the battle
 |
| Bhool Bhullaya |
 |
| Begum Hazrat Mahal Park Memoirs of the Lady who fought ... 1857 Mutiny warrior
The Lucknow of today is the blend of old and new, fast and slow, heritage and modernity ... I love the city because it lets you be. It doesn't force you to run and nor hinders your sprint. You can choose your pace and enjoy the choice your way....
At end all I have to say is...
"Kisme hai Dam ki Hamse Chhudhaye Lucknow
Lucknow Ham Par Fida hai ..Ham Fidaye Lucknow"
(Who has the guts to take me out of Lucknow..
I am in love with Lucknow, and Lucknow in Love with me)
