Sikandar Bagh
Sikandar Bagh, also known as Sikander Bagh, is a historic villa and garden located in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. It was built by Nawab Wajid Ali Shah, the last Nawab of Oudh, as a summer residence. The name "Sikandar Bagh" translates to "Garden of Sikandar," named after Sikandar Mahal Begum, the Nawab's favorite wife.
The garden is enclosed by a fortified wall with loopholes, a gateway, and corner bastions. It covers an area of approximately 4.5 acres. Sikandar Bagh is known for its lush greenery and serene atmosphere, making it a popular spot for leisurely walks and relaxation.
Sikandar Bagh holds historical significance as it was a site of fierce battles during the Indian Rebellion of 1857. The British forces stormed the garden, leading to the slaughter of over 2,000 sepoy mutineers who had made it a stronghold. Today, the garden is part of the National Botanical Research Institute of India.
