Capturing a bygone era

 

 

Did you know that Lucknow, historically known as Awadh, was the cultural centre for Muslims before partition? To experience that bygone splendour, visit Lucknow from November 25th-December 5th and participate in the annual Lucknow festival. Various events like Kathak dances, kite flying, cock fighting, sarangi and sitar recitals etc are organised to recapture the aroma of the Nawabi days of Awadh.
