FARHAT BAKSH KOTHI
Originally called the 'Martin Villa', Farhat Baksh Kothi was built by the founder of La Martiniere, Major General Claude Martin. Constructed in 1781, this classic representation of Indo-French architecture has extended today to make the historically rich Chattar Manzil in Lucknow.
THE RESIDENCY
The Residency, also called as the British Residency and Residency Complex, is a group of several buildings in a common precinct in the city of Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India. It served as the residence for the British Resident General who was a representative in the court of the Nawab of Awadh or Oudh. The Residency has been maintained as it was at the time of the final relief during the Siege of Lucknow, and the Shattered walls are still scarred by cannon shot.
LAL BARADARI
Lal Baradari, a notable and once a sanctified structure in Lucknow built during reign of Nawab Saadat Ali Khan (1798 -1814) became a part of Chhatar Manzil Palace complex and served as the throne room, coronation hall and assembly for Avadh rulers. In the 1990s it was occupied by the State Lalit Kala Academy of fine arts and was also used as gallery for holding art exhibitions. It is on Lucknow University campus opposite Tagore library park Park
AMIR-UD-DAULAH LIBRARY
The Amir-ud-daula Public Library, established in 1868, is one of the oldest public library in Lucknow, UP. According to the Wikipedia, the Amir-ud-daula Public Library has a collection of about 2 lakh books in different languages that include Hindi, English, Urdu, Arabic, Persian, Bengali, and Sanskrit.
SAFED BARADARI
The Safed Baradari was primarily built as the Imambara or the 'Palace of Mourning', used to organise the Azadaari. With the colonial siege in 1856, this place of grief turned into a formal area for court hearing and petitions to take place. However, it was this even that further fuelled the 1857 war of Indian Independence.
