Summary[edit]

Description
English: Built as an imambara or a congregation hall for Shia Muslims, by Muhammad Ali Shah, the Nawab of Awadh in 1838, the imambara was to serve as a mausoleum for himself and his mother, who is buried beside him.The building is also known as the Palace of Lights because of its decorations and chandeliers during special festivals, like Muharram.It has a gilded dome and several turrets and minarets.The walls are decorated with Arabic calligraphy. The picture was taken by me with my samsung phone when I visited the Imambara with my family on our trip to Lucknow.[2]
