Dark sights in Lucknow

1. Mohammed Ali Shah Tomb

   • Lucknow, India
   • Sights › Dark

   Just 500m up the road from the Bara Imambara is another tomb that was built by Mohammed Ali Shah in 1832. His tomb is here alongside his mother. Smaller than the Bara Imambara but adorned with calligraphy, it has a much more serene and intimate atmosphere.

   In the garden is a tank and two replicas of the Taj Mahal that are the tombs of Mohammed Ali Shah's daughter and her husband. A traditional hammam can be seen as well as Mohammed's silver throne and red crown, countless chandeliers and some tazias.
