Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This large structure was built by Nawab Asaf-ud-Daula in 1786-91 and is one of the architectural wonders of that era. The Imambara complex is accessed through two enormous gateways that lead into a huge courtyard.At the far end of the courtyard is the huge central hall, one of the world’s largest vaulted galleries. Tazia (small replicas of Imam Hussain’s tomb in Karbala, Iraq) are stored inside the galleries.

The ASI number of this monument of national importance is N-UP-L276.

The picture was taken on an afternoon when I visited Lucknow with my family. The picture shows the beautiful design on the gate.. especially the symbol of fish.

The place is most famous and attracts a lot of people due to the presence of a large Labyrinth inside the Imambara complex.
