Lucknow: a Walk through History

Abstract

For Lucknow, culture is not just in its architecture but in its every nook and corner. It is in the language, attire, food, folklore, music and the life of its people. This culture comes across significantly whenever given a chance. A City which held on to its turf during the premiere war of independence in 1857, also known as the Mutiny of 1857, and still keeps the Ganga-Jamuni tehzeeb close to its bosom as a mother keeps her most beloved child. But the unfortunate reality is that it has never been given even half a chance. The city carries on with the same image of just being the capital city of Uttar Pradesh with a couple of significant Imambaras to its credit. It is time to revamp the city not only literally but also in the minds of people in general and potential visitors in particular. This needs to be achieved through various synchronized efforts which include stepping up the infrastructure level and positioning the city favorably through promotional campaigns, creating a heritage zone which offers a complete experience to the visitors and makes them linger for more.
