Realms of Lucknow’s History
Lucknow history can be understood through various realms, reflecting different periods and influences. These include the Ramayana & the Kosala periods, much later the Mughal and the transition to the rule of the Nawabs of Awadh, later the British Raj and finally a federal state in the independent India.
These periods have significantly shaped the city’s culture, architecture, and its overall identity, resulting in a rich collection of historical landmarks and traditions. While the standard Lucknow tour often commences with the period of the Nawabs, starting around 1775 and ending in 1858 at the siege of Lucknow, there are earlier and later historical layers that are frequently overlooked but are equally important.
Our well curated day tour of Lucknow, “Realms of Lucknow’s History” aims to explore each of these significant periods, showcasing relevant sites from each. To further enrich your understanding, we have a collection of digitized texts, lithographs, and pictures that will help you delve deeper into Lucknow’s history and its cultural evolution across these different realms.
