There are many different places in India, which is very beautiful. You must have known about Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh, which is also known as the 'City of Tehzeeb' or 'City of Nawabs'. However, in the year 1850, the last Nawab of Awadh, Wajid Ali Shah, accepted the British subjugation, after which the rule of the Nawabs of Lucknow ended forever. However, Lucknow is located in an area historically known as the Awadh region. Do you know how this city of Nawabs was named Lucknow. There are many stories behind this, about which we are going to tell you today, which is interesting.

According to the mythological beliefs, Lord Shri Ram, the king of Ayodhya, handed over this area to his brother Lakshmana. Laxman established a city on the banks of Gomti Nagar, which was known as Laxmanavati, Laxmanpur or Lakhanpur. This name was later changed to Lucknow. An elevated mound is present in the old part of the city, which is still called 'Laxman Tila'. Another story is very popular about the naming of Lucknow. It is said that this city was named after Maharaja Lakhan Bhar, who was the main artist of the 'Lakhan Fort'. Now there is so much truth in this, only people who know and hear this will know.

Lucknow has preserved its inherited culture with modern beauty even today with great beauty. The 'first Aap' style has been imbibed in the society here since the times of the Nawabs. Although a lot has changed with the times, but one third of the population here is still holding this Tehzeeb. Lucknowi Pan is an integral part of the culture here. Without it, Lucknow seems a bit incomplete. There is a clock tower in Lucknow, which is considered to be the highest bell tower in India. There is also a picture gallery built in the 19th century. Here are the pictures of almost all the Nawabs of Lucknow.
