Girija Devi Temple

Mentioned on

Hindu temple
Sights & Landmarks
Points of Interest & Landmarks
Girija Devi Temple is a quaint and serene temple located on a hilltop overlooking the Kosi River. Accessible by a pedestrian river footbridge, it sits amidst scenic forested surroundings, offering a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Despite its small size, the temple's serene ambiance and decked up idol of Devi make it a compelling destination for visitors.
This temple is available in a beautiful location near Dhikuli. It is a riversideview where you can enjoy swimming as well, being careful with children. Established 8-10 km from Ramnagar town, this temple is quite old and famous. You need to climb around 50-60 stairs to go there. After that you can enjoy the riverside view and click some really wonderful pictures. 4 KM away there is the Dhangarhi museum, which is a bonus for kids. Both places are must visit if you are going to Ramnagar or Jim Corbett National Park.

Garjiya Devi Temple in Ramnagar is truly a hidden gem! The location is absolutely beautiful, and being right by the riverside adds a serene charm to the whole experience. It’s not just a spiritual place but also an awesome spot for a picnic with family and friends. However, one concern I had was the littering around the river. It takes away from the natural beauty and peaceful vibe of the area. I really hope visitors become more responsible, and some proper dustbins and awareness signs are put up. Also, having toilets easily accessible below the bridge would be a great help. It would ensure cleanliness in the temple premises and make the overall experience even better. Highly recommend visiting, but let’s all do our part to keep this place clean and beautiful!
Sunita R — Google review
This is a beautiful temple located by the riverside, surrounded by a serene and scenic environment. The location is excellent, and you can even take a bath or play in the river. To reach the Devi, you’ll need to climb some steep steps, but it’s truly worth it. An excellent place to visit, though weekends can get crowded.”
Sai R — Google review
A truly memorable moment at one of the best temples—beginning with divine darshan and receiving the sacred prashad. After offering prayers, sitting peacefully by the riverside brings unmatched calm. The crystal-clear water flows gently, so pure you can even drink it. A perfect blend of devotion and serenity.
Jitendra M — Google review
Girijia Devi Maa temple, located near river at very high, you have to climb straight high stairs, after coming down your legs will shiver. Nice and beautiful place all around the temple with river.
Sumit Y — Google review
Beautiful temple located near the riverside with amazing views all around. There are a couple of steep stairs to reach the temple and it can get crowded during the weekends.
Anchal N — Google review
I have visited this place during my visit to Ramnagar. I have not visited the temple inside so can't comment on it but it has big lines to go inside the temple. Beside that there is a beautiful river which is must visit place. There you can take bath in water and devour with Maggie and basic food which is really a good place for hangout with friends and family.
Apeksha D — Google review
Visiting the Girija Devi Temple🛕 was truly a peaceful and serene experience. Nestled amidst natural beauty, the temple offers a spiritual retreat like no other. Situated on top of a small hillock in the middle of the Kosi River, the temple’s unique location adds to its charm and sacred aura🏔️🏞️ To reach the temple, one must climb a steep staircase, which can be a bit challenging but ultimately rewarding. The panoramic view from the top, coupled with the divine atmosphere, makes the effort worthwhile. Devotees come here to seek the blessings of Devi Girija, and the temple exudes a strong sense of devotion and tranquility🌿🌷 ❗️During peak travel seasons and holidays, expect long queues and a fair amount of waiting. The narrow passage and steep steps can make the ascent difficult, especially for senior citizens or those with mobility issues. It's advisable to avoid the climb if you have any health concerns related to walking or climbing. 💫Overall, the Girija Devi Temple is a must-visit for spiritual seekers and those looking to experience natural beauty along with divinity. Just be prepared for a bit of a climb—and a truly rewarding experience at the top🌟

Prem Wonderland & Water Kingdom is a vast amusement park that offers an array of activities suitable for all ages. It has thrilling water slides, a wave pool, and other exciting rides for both kids and adults. Visitors can purchase tickets for Rs 250 to access the amusement park or opt for the Waterworld package at Rs 500 per person. The latter includes admission to the amusement park and additional water activities.
Very spacious, clean and well managed. Chhole Bhature, Dosa, Lime Soda is good. Gentry is good. 500 entry fee. Sea wave fun at 2pm.
Vivek K — Google review
A decent place to spend some time though not comparable to water parks in Delhi NCR. Ample parking space is available. Children below 39 inches of height can enter free. Entry for adults is @600. You can hire swimming costumes/towels/lockers @100 each. Hardly anyone was there in a proper swimming costume. They have a small cafeteria inside.
Sandeep S — Google review
The place is nice but the pool depth is just around 3ft everywhere. While the kids will love it but as an adult you won't. You will hit the floor if you take the higher slide. Someone was telling me that the 5ft pool place was covered for some private function. This is unacceptable. Also signages are poorly placed. For family time this is a good place to hangout for 1-2 hours. Wave pool is just being operated for 10-15 mins. For waterpark entry 600 is being charged now and if you have someone who won't use the waterpark then entry would be 200 but they won't be allowed to enter the pool area.
Tapas P — Google review
Bad things are... you have to pay every corner of water park. You have to pay for costume. So if u want to go there buy Nylon tshirt & Bermuda. Even baby have to follow the dress code. You cant take outside food. There is no hanger in male/female changing room you have to put ur garments on floor. Good things are nice place to visit if you want to swim deep pool then dont go there....
Mohammad A — Google review
I visited this place back in 2016 with my friends. At that time, the ticket was ₹450 — it might have increased now. I was coming from Rampur when I saw this place and decided to visit. The area is quite large and perfect for kids, picnics, and various activities. There’s a spacious park, a stage where you can dance, and several facilities for physical activities. During the summer, the waterpark here gets really crowded, so plan your visit accordingly. Overall, it’s a great spot to spend time with friends and family. I would definitely recommend visiting at least once!

Corbett Falls is a picturesque waterfall located in a forested area, easily accessible by both car and foot. While Corbett National Park is known for its natural beauty and wildlife, the park offers various activities beyond safaris and nature experiences. Visitors can enjoy mountain biking, photography, yoga, and naturopathy treatments.

You pay entry fee and car parking fee and have fun.It has waterfall,small streams, swimming pool and scenic beauty.Also you get to have adventures like aircycling and others.Worth the visit.

Decent waterfalls, near Corbett Museum. At the entry, there's a ticket counter, post which you can take your car inside the forest. There's a short hike post the parking, which although short, has a bunch of stairs, elders, be advised. The steps, carved of stone, are infused with algae and chances of slipping are prevalent. The place is really beautiful in monsoon. Throughout the hike they also have some adventure activities like sky cycling, ziplining etc, which were closed however citing rain (there wasn't any). I suppose it's up to their mood to close / open. There's also a small cafe and souvenir shop near the parking area, although there are very limited options.

I recently visited Corbett Falls, and it was a delightful experience! The ticket charge is 100 rupees per person, but it's free for kids, which is a nice bonus for families. The location is very convenient, situated on the road near the Girja Devi Temple, making it easy to access. There's ample parking space available, and you can drive your car up to 200 meters from the waterfall, which is quite convenient. The falls themselves are beautiful, surrounded by lush greenery and offering a peaceful atmosphere. The trek to the waterfall involves crossing a small wooden bridge, which adds to the charm of the experience. Along the way, you can spot small fishes in the clear waters, making it a fun adventure for kids. Speaking of kids, this spot is perfect for families! There is a kids' zone where children can play, and even some fun activities like sky cycling. The entire area is well-maintained and clean, making it a great place for kids to enjoy nature in a safe environment. The sound of the waterfall and the natural beauty of the surroundings make it an ideal spot for relaxation and photography. Overall, Corbett Falls is a fantastic destination for families, nature lovers, and those looking to enjoy a peaceful day out. The combination of scenic beauty, ease of access, and fun activities for kids makes it a place worth visiting if you're in the area.

1. Little hectic to get parking even though they have parking place. 2. From main entrance to waterfall is quite long so suggest you to go in two/four wheeler rather than walk. 3. Good jungle atmosphere. 4. Plenty of food option available but little costly than normal ( ex - 1 lemonade glass = 60₹ ) 5. Man made marble pool around the waterfall. 6. Thats it go and explore more !
Tushar G — Google review
I am a nature enthusiast. The day i visited was rainy so the place was prettier than it usually would be as the lush green area around the waterfall was humid and was very pleasant. This is the only place you can visit while in Jim Corbett to be closer to nature other than safari.

This was very good experience. A must visit place while going towards Nainital after Jim Corbett. Entry fee is Rs 50 and Car fees is Rs 100. You have to take your vehicle with you for around a kilometer. The waterfall was great. Zip line and zip-cycling actvity was also there with extra charges. My son enjoyed the zip-line activity very much. A small canteen is also there.

Jim Corbett Museum

Museum
Specialty Museums
The Jim Corbett Museum is located in the former home of conservationist Jim Corbett, situated on the tiger reserve named in his honor. It's a popular stop during a visit to the Jim Corbett National Park. The museum offers an insightful look into Corbett's life and legacy, showcasing artifacts and information about his adventures and dedication to wildlife conservation. Visitors can explore exhibits detailing his childhood, family history, and work experience. The museum also features personal items such as furniture used by Corbett.
The Jim Corbett Museum is a great place to spend 1–2 hours learning about the history and fascinating facts of Corbett National Park. I visited there on Friday and morning and spends 1-2 hours with my kids knowing about history of Corbett national park. The museum is well-maintained and features preserved tiger sculptures along with their original skins, accompanied by details about their causes of death. Museum offer a visual screen shows to know behaviour of animals and various attractions that engage children, helping them learn about birds, animals, and their sounds. Ticket price is rupees hundred which is worth… I recommend to visit Corbett museum to explore and know about history of Jim Corbett nation park.. Have a great learning visit
Satya P — Google review
The first thing I want to mention here is that this museum is different from the Dhangarhi Museum. In Dhangadhi, the museum is especially good to visit with kids, and you can find there real skin of tigers, leopards, and elephants showcased. Here in the Jim Corbett Museum, this is the winter residence of Col. Jim Corbett, which is now converted into a museum. Here you can see some of his crockery, his furniture, and a camera obscura used by Corbett. The house is well maintained and clean. There is a souvenir shop where some textiles, keychains, and books written by Corbett are also available. You can see the grave of his two dogs who stayed with him while hunting. The price of ticket is 100 per person and free for kids.
Sachin M — Google review
Nice place to stop but narrative around Corbett should be placed in the context of colonial history. The home and surrounding garden are adequately maintained but are sparse. The gift shop has interesting pieces. The Rs. 100 entry fee is too high for the quality of the displays. The high fee would also be a barrier against locals coming here. Given Corbett's beliefs on social equity this fee should be reconsidered at least for local residents.
M R — Google review
Okayish museum to learn about the life and upbringing of Jim Corbett. It's not much of a museum but rather images on display. I expected to see ancient artifacts, maybe the tools / guns he used to hunt etc. For the price they charge (100/- per ticket), the experience isn't very immersive. There are two small huts / cottages with pictures inside and in one you can see empty shelves that were probably gun racks before. The vicinity of the museum houses a souvenir shop which has a nice collection of T shirts, caps, local spices etc. Nice touch.
Gaurav G — Google review

The place is well maintained but the people here are so misogynistic. Even the local people outside University while passing through the university road eve tease female students, click pictures of them and even ogle at them. The authority only restricts the movement of girls and judge the girl victims whenever any case of eve teasing or harassment comes up. You can't expect justice here at the very least but if u just want to enjoy the nature, you come definitely visit. The professors are good too.

An average place for a day out with family. There are not many swings and activities to do, and the already existing ones do not work all(some are out of order). Cleanliness is good and well maintained. The food in the canteen is great, the tea is top notch. Overall it's a pretty decent place to take your family out.
Nihal K — Google review
I would like to start by saying the guy sitting at the ticket counter at the entry is extremely rude and no sense to talk with anyone. No sense to talk to women leave alone the men. Else it has been a good experience since it was a weekday so no rush at all so you can enjoy all the rides without any wait. There are many rides inside the water park although they need a lot of cleaning and hygiene. Another big scope of improvement is they do not accept upi inside the park for lockers or towels or for changing room only cash. The changing room needs a lot of cleaning and some water pressure for shower. Parking space was ample, there was lifeguards at most of the rides. The wave park was good but it was on for only once at around 3, if you are late then you'll miss that. No food points inside the water park but outside the park there was rides, park for kids and food points also. Overall a positive experience

This amusement park is a popular spot for weekend fun in Bareilly, as it's the only one in the city. While it can get a bit crowded on weekends, it offers a decent range of facilities. However, the water park section is disappointing, with dirty water and poor maintenance. Though people, including kids, do enjoy swimming, the pools often smell bad and seem to lack proper cleaning.

This mall offers a great shopping and movie experience, with a wide selection of brand stores available. However, I'm giving it 3 stars due to some maintenance issues. 1. One escalator in every pair is often out of order. 2. The UPI payment option for parking never seems to work when I try to use it. Improved maintenance could help attract a better crowd.

This mall is a great place to shop and spend time. It houses all the major brand stores under one roof, making it a one-stop destination for fashion, electronics, lifestyle,foood . The ambiance is quite welcoming. Whether you're shopping, eating, or just hanging out with friends, it offers a good experience. However, the only drawback is that the mall tends to leak during heavy rainfall, which can be inconvenient and unsafe in some areas. If that issue is fixed, it would definitely enhance the comfort and experience of visitors.

Blue World Theme Park in Kanpur is a vibrant destination that promises an exhilarating day for families and adventure enthusiasts alike. With its impressive array of water slides, thrilling roller coasters, and engaging games, there's something for everyone to enjoy. Visitors rave about the lively atmosphere and friendly staff who ensure a clean and safe environment throughout the park. While some guests have noted minor issues with food quality and certain attractions like the 7D show, these do not overshadow the overall excitement of the experience.
Good place if you are water ride lover. But the water there is very dirty filled with chlorine. And day by day they are increasing the price of the ticket. Better to search for any alternative.

Loved the water park it was very lively even though it was a weekday. The rides were awesome and very amusing. But the water was warm and not very pleasant as there was too much chlorine in it. The rides were very crowded and it may take upto 45mins for some rides. Overall could be done better if managed properly
Anand S — Google review
It's a water park as well as amusement park. More famous for its water park. Lots of slides and fun areas. Required cleaning at most places like shower rooms and locker area. Food served was good and hygienic. Water at wave area was smelling but it's problem of lack of civics sense in Indian public. Recommended for enjoyment.
Samreen S — Google review
Very vast campus from main gate entrance it looked like that we are in Rome , artistic building's then pool area was wonderful, but couldn't enjoy all ride due to lack of time . Rest there were many things to see and discover. Must visit it's worth it. Just make sure that you have enough time to enjoy there.
SANDEEP K — Google review
Not worth the hype at all. That too when I visited on Wednesday. First of all, there was no proper management of crowd. In water park section, most of the pools have dirty water. None of the pool had fresh normal temperature water, instead they have almost hot water. There was too much waiting on all major slides, almost 30 min+, and people very frequently try to join mid-line by saying I know this person that person. Similar situation was in amusement park. Waiting time of 30-45 min, literally no sunshade for waiting people, and the major rides started late at about 2 pm. Now talking about the fooding part, yeah it was unlimited food and that too of goof quality. But, welcome drink was a joke, just a ₹10 mango drink. Also, at that price of ticket, one would expect at least pickle or chutney on the side, but a big NO. Overall I would say the park was a overhyped average experience.
Gaurav R — Google review
Visted on Wednesday ticket price was 1000/- per person and it was full worth it... On 1000/- it includes water park, lunch and mostly all theme park rides and also waterpark costume was at reasonable price. Just 1 problem is that it's very crowded and you have to wait for 20-25min for every ride.

Nestled in the serene surroundings of Nawabganj, just a short drive from Kanpur city, the Kanpur Zoological Park, also known as Allen Forest Zoo, is a delightful destination for families and wildlife enthusiasts alike. Established in 1971 by Sir Allen, this expansive zoo is set within a lush man-made forest that boasts vibrant vegetation and a picturesque lake.
One can see more than 100 species from majestic bengal tigers, rare white tigers, leopards, rhinos, and around 35 bird species.
Vnomad — Google review
** Kanpur Zoological Park ** Rating: ★★★★☆ I recently visited Kanpur Zoological Park, and overall, it was a great experience, though there are a few areas that could use improvement. The park is massive and offers a fantastic variety of animals. You can find many species, such as the Royal Bengal Tiger, Crocodile, Wolf, Rhinoceros, Himalayan Polar Bear, Leopard, and more. There are also 25-35 species of birds, including the vibrant Macau, Peacock, White Pelican, Goose, and various types of monkeys. The wildlife diversity is impressive, and the large green spaces make it a pleasant place to explore. It's a lovely spot to spend a few hours with family or friends. However, I did have an issue with the food stalls inside the zoo. While it’s understandable that prices may be a bit higher due to the location, it felt like they were taking advantage of visitors. For instance, a cold drink priced at ₹40 is being sold for ₹50, which is quite a markup. Other items were similarly overpriced, which left a bad taste after an otherwise enjoyable visit. Another area that needs attention is the cleanliness of the water storage areas, like the ponds. Some of them seemed to have stagnant water, and a little more care in maintaining these spots would improve the overall experience. Despite these minor issues, the zoo offers an amazing variety of animals and a beautiful, expansive space to enjoy nature. With some improvements to food pricing and cleanliness, this could easily be a five-star experience. Would definitely recommend visiting, but be prepared for the overcharging at the food stalls!

The Kanpur Zoological Park, famously known as the Allen Forest Zoo, is a wonderful and sprawling sanctuary that offers a refreshing escape into nature within the city limits. As one of the few zoos in India established within a natural forest, it spans over 76 hectares, providing a lush, green environment that feels more like a wildlife reserve. ​The zoo is managed on modern principles, featuring large, open, and moated enclosures that give the animals ample space and a more natural habitat, which is a commendable effort for animal welfare. Visitors can observe a diverse range of fauna, including the Royal Bengal Tiger, leopards, hippos, a variety of deer, and numerous species of birds and reptiles. ​Beyond the animal exhibits, the park is a destination in itself. It features a large, scenic lake with boating facilities, a rich botanical garden, and a popular toy train ride, making it an ideal spot for a full-day family outing. The presence of a dinosaur park and an aquarium adds to the appeal for children.

This iconic gateway, located right next to the historic Teele Wali Masjid, proudly marks the entrance to Old Lucknow.Built in 1784 by Nawab Asaf-ud-Daula during a severe famine, it was part of a relief project that gave work to thousands of people. The gate is said to be inspired by the gateways of Constantinople (modern-day Istanbul), which gives it the name "Rumi."The intricate floral motifs, ornamental carvings, and the grand archway showcase the artistry of that era. Walking under the gateway feels like stepping back in time. In the evening, when it is beautifully lit up, the darwaza looks even more magnificent and offers great opportunities for photography.

Rumi Darwaza (also called the Turkish Gate) is a very iconic historical monument in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. Here are some key details about it: --- Key Facts & History 1. Built By Constructed by Nawab Asaf-ud-Daula in 1784. Designed by the architect Kifayatullah. 2. Purpose Built during a severe famine in Avadh to provide employment to people. It served as a grand gateway and a symbol of Nawabi generosity. 3. Architecture & Design Style: Awadhi / Indo-Islamic architecture. Height: ~ 60 feet (about 18 meters). It was modeled after the Sublime Porte (Bab-i-Humayun) in Istanbul, Turkey. Construction materials: thin burnt clay bricks and lakhori bricks, with mortar made from lime and crushed brick (called Surkhi). Intricate floral carvings, leaf-like designs, and sculptural details decorate the structure. A large pointed arch, topped with a dome-like structure, and slender turrets on the sides. On top there's a chhatri (a kind of small pavilion). 4. Symbolism & Name “Rumi” comes from “Rûm,” a historic Islamic name for Anatolia / Eastern Roman (Byzantine) lands, so it’s often called the “Turkish Gate.” It is considered a symbol of Lucknow and its Nawabi heritage. 5. Conservation The Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) is involved in its preservation. Recently (as of 2024), a major restoration project was underway to repair cracks and structural damage. One of the conservation challenges: vibrations from vehicles passing underneath the arch have caused cracks. 6. Tourism & Accessibility There is no entry fee to visit the Rumi Darwaza. Location: Near Asafi (Bara) Imambara in Lucknow. It is particularly photogenic at sunrise and sunset. The structure is lit up at night, enhancing its beauty. 7. Cultural Significance It’s considered not just an architectural marvel, but also a monument of social importance, created as a relief work during famine.

Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Bara Imambara, also known as Asafi Imambara, is a grand architectural marvel built by Nawab Asaf-ud-Daula in the late 18th century. This historical monument in Lucknow features a large mosque, a labyrinth called Bhul Bhulaiya, and a stepwell with running water. The central hall of Bara Imambara is renowned as the largest vaulted chamber globally and is devoid of any woodwork except for its interior galleries.
The Bara Imambara is one of Lucknow’s most magnificent architectural wonders, built in 1784 by Nawab Asaf-ud-Daula. Beyond its grandeur, the monument carries a noble history — it was constructed as a relief measure during a devastating famine in the Awadh region, providing employment to thousands of people. This splendid structure is a perfect example of Mughal and Awadhi architecture, featuring massive arched halls built without the use of beams or iron supports — a true engineering marvel of its time. --- 🏰 Key Highlights 🧭 Bhool Bhulaiya (Labyrinth): The world-famous maze inside the Imambara, full of narrow passages and hidden stairways. Taking a guide is highly recommended to navigate the maze and understand its architectural intricacies. 💧 Shahi Baoli (Stepwell): A stunning stepwell within the complex, offering a glimpse into ancient water-harvesting systems and Mughal craftsmanship. 🎟️ Tickets: A combined ticket is available for all nearby monuments (including Chhota Imambara and Rumi Darwaza), or you can buy a single entry ticket for Bara Imambara alone. --- 🐎 Traveler Tips Guides are available at the entrance — worth hiring for the fascinating stories and to safely explore the labyrinth. Opposite the monument, you’ll find a tonga (horse cart) stand — a fun way to experience old Lucknow charm. There’s even a modern vending machine nearby — a rare convenience in historic areas, offering water and refreshments. Best visited early morning or late afternoon to avoid the midday rush and enjoy photography in softer light. --- 🌸 Final Thoughts The Bara Imambara is not just a monument — it’s a living legacy of art, architecture, and humanity. Its vast halls, mystical corridors, and historic aura make it a must-visit destination for anyone exploring Lucknow’s cultural heart. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommended for history lovers, architecture enthusiasts, and curious travelers alike.

Bara Imambara is one of the most impressive historical monuments I’ve ever visited. The entire complex reflects the rich heritage of Lucknow, with stunning Mughal-style architecture and beautiful craftsmanship. The highlight is the Bhulbhulaiya (labyrinth) — an intricate maze that is both fascinating and a bit thrilling. The views from the top are excellent and give a great glimpse of the city’s old charm. The Asfi Mosque inside the complex is equally majestic. The place is well-maintained, and the guides are knowledgeable. Plan to spend at least 2–3 hours to fully explore the monument and the surrounding gardens. Overall, a wonderful experience and a must-visit for anyone coming to Lucknow.

Bara Imambara, also known as Imam Bada, is one of the most iconic monuments in Lucknow and an absolute must-visit if you’re in the city. Built in 1784 by Nawab Asaf-ud-Daula, it’s not just a piece of history but also a stunning example of Mughal-era architecture. The highlight is the massive central hall — said to be one of the largest arched halls in the world built without any beams or iron supports. Walking into it, you can’t help but be amazed at the engineering brilliance of that time. Above the hall lies the famous *Bhool Bhulaiya* (labyrinth), a maze of corridors and passageways that’s both exciting and slightly spooky to explore. Beyond the architecture, the place carries deep cultural and religious importance. It was originally built as part of famine relief work and continues to serve as a place of worship during Muharram. The courtyards, arches, and gateways like the Rumi Darwaza nearby also make it a photographer’s delight. On the flip side, the site can get crowded, especially during weekends or festivals, and parts of the complex could use a bit more upkeep. Guides are sometimes pushy, and the summer heat can make exploration a little tiring. Still, none of this takes away from the grandeur of the monument. Tips for visitors: Best time to visit is morning or late afternoon (avoid peak heat). Wear comfortable shoes — the maze requires walking and climbing. Hiring a good guide can enhance the experience, but agree on rates in advance. Carry water and be mindful of the cultural setting. Overall Bara Imambara is more than a tourist spot — it’s a blend of history, culture, and architectural wonder. Despite minor drawbacks, it’s one of the finest heritage experiences in Lucknow and should not be missed

Bada Imambada in Lucknow is one of the city’s most iconic monuments and a true symbol of its rich heritage. The complex includes the famous Bhool Bhulaiya, the grand Asfi Mosque, and the majestic Rumi Darwaza. The intricate Mughal-era architecture, vast arched halls, and detailed craftsmanship reflect the glory of the Nawabi era. The serenity of the complex, combined with its historical charm, makes it a perfect place to explore and admire. A must-visit landmark for anyone wanting to experience the cultural soul of Lucknow.

If you are going to Lucknow, you should definitely go to Bada Imambara. Famously known as Nawabon ka Sheher, I think going to the very Iconic Bada Imambara area is a must. When you reach Bada Imambara, you can get a tuk-tuk or E-rickshaw, which take 100 rs for one ride around the entire area, including the Rumi Darwaza, Shahi Bawli, Clock Tower, Art Gallery in Chota Imambara and back to Bada Imambara where you can go inside and explore Bhool Bhulaiyan, another bouli and the amazing Nawabi architecture, which closely resembles Taj Mahal, in many aspects. You notice it instantly when you see it. The Tuktukwala or E-rickshaw driver also tells you the history of the places and attached stories of different places. And there is no time limit. All this for 100 rs, especially if you are a group of 4, is a very economical and value for money deal. Art Gallery in Chota Imambara is where you get ticket for both gallery and Imambara for Rs. 50 per person And it's the most amazing at evening after sun has set, with the lights. Just one thing to BEWARE of, do NOT buy chikken kari kurti or chikken embroidery clothing from where the E-rickshaw person takes you, you can get better deal and better stuff at other places in Lucknow. This is especially for the first timers.

When you are Lucknow, you will surely visit this place. This is just like Tajmahal in Agra. Nice place to visit but very crowded. Ticket price is ₹50, to cover all sites in this complex as well as Chhota Imambada. Guide will charge according to the number of people in your group. But remember, after the payment, you will be added to large heterogeneous group of visitors. You won't get personal attention. Guide will be already tired and you are least likely to enjoy.
Alok — Google review
Crazy crowds. Don't go inside the maze if you are claustrophobic or don't like crowds. The maze is nice and the view from top is good too. If you like these type of architectural places. You can just look from outside too and walk in the courtyard. Also, it will not feel any different than other similar buildings if you don't get a guide to tell you some of the facts around the building.

The Residency, Lucknow

Mentioned on 
+56 other lists 
Archaeological site
Museums
The Residency in Lucknow is a captivating historical site that offers a glimpse into the past, particularly during the tumultuous times of the Revolt of 1857. Nestled amidst beautifully terraced lawns and gardens, this remarkable complex was originally constructed as living quarters for British officials under Nawab Saadat Ali Khan between 1780 and 1800. Overlooking the serene River Gomti, it served as a refuge for British citizens during one of India's most significant uprisings.
Having lived in Lucknow all my life, I had visited The Residency as a child but never truly explored it. Recently, I finally took the time to revisit this historic gem — and I’m so glad I did. The moment you step inside, you’re transported to a time that shaped India’s history. The ruins, still marked with bullet holes and cannon fire, silently narrate the intensity of the 1857 revolt. Each structure within the complex — from the Baillie Guard Gate and Treasury to the church ruins and underground chambers — holds a haunting charm. Walking through the wide lawns and shaded pathways, I spent time at the museum, the graveyard, and the many crumbling buildings that once formed the heart of British residency life. The view from the top of some of the structures is breathtaking, and the atmosphere is both peaceful and reflective. It’s not just a monument, it’s a memory — of resilience, history, and a city that has seen so much. If you’re in Lucknow, The Residency deserves your time and attention.

This place covers a huge area. Its very well maintained. The entry ticket is quite less-Rs. 25 for the Indians. There are ASI boards outside individual ruins to give proper information about the place. There's no guide there. Place is easily accessible by auto, cabs or nearby metro station.
S H — Google review
The complex is beautifully maintained with lush green lawns that contrast starkly with the ruins. It is a large area, so prepare for plenty of walking. Information plaques are placed at key locations like the Baillie Guard Gate, Dr. Fayrer's House (where Sir Henry Lawrence died), and the Memorial Museum. The 1857 Memorial Museum, housed within the complex, is a must-see. It contains artifacts, paintings, and maps that offer a detailed, if slightly biased toward the colonial perspective, overview of the events of the siege. What makes the site so compelling is that the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) has intentionally preserved it in a state of ruin. The bullet-ridden walls, the gaping holes from cannonballs, and the crumbling arches are not restored; they are left as silent, powerful witnesses to the conflict. You can clearly trace the trajectory of the cannon fire on the main Residency building, the Treasury, and the Banquet Hall. The adjacent cemetery, where thousands of British and Indian soldiers, women, and children were buried, adds a somber layer of reflection. Entrance fee for foreigners is ₹300. Morning hours are highly recommended to avoid the harsh midday sun, especially during the summer months.

Having lived in Lucknow all my life, I had visited The Residency as a child, but only recently did I truly explore it — and it turned out to be one of the most meaningful experiences I’ve had in the city. The moment you enter, you feel transported to another era. The bullet-marked walls, damaged structures, and remnants of cannons silently narrate the intensity of the 1857 uprising. Every part of the complex — from the Baillie Guard Gate and Treasury Building to the church ruins, museum, and underground chambers — carries a haunting yet fascinating historical charm. Walking through the wide lawns, peaceful pathways, and shaded areas, I found myself reflecting on the resilience and sacrifices that shaped India’s past. The small museum offers well-curated information, and the graveyard adds emotional depth to the experience. Climbing some of the vantage points gives you a beautiful view of the entire complex. The Residency is not just a monument — it’s a preserved memory of India’s struggle, the city’s heritage, and a chapter of history that still echoes through its walls. If you’re in Lucknow, this place absolutely deserves your time and attention.

Loved the experience of going back to the Residency after 9 years again. The place has been maintained very well and kept clean. The ASI has also illuminated the buildings in the evening. The small museum is also informative about the history of the place. One must visit when in Lucknow.

The Residency is the site of British Habitation during the colonial period in Lucknow. Later during the 1857 revolt it became one of the most active centres for revolutionary activity. Many of the buildings here are a testimony of the violence that occurred here. The site has been well maintained and has a nominal entry fee of 20rs. It is worth getting a guide while visiting here as the place would otherwise seem uninteresting.

It was built by the Nawab Asaf-ud-Duala when he shifted his Avadh Capital from Faizabad to Lucknow in the 17th Century. This project was completed during the reign of Nawab Saadat Ali Khan II. It was later handed over to the British and served as a residence to the British Resident General in Avadh (Oudh) - 18th & 19th Century.

Nestled in the heart of Lucknow, the Nawab Wajid Ali Shah Zoological Garden, established in 1921, is a must-visit for animal lovers and history buffs alike. Spanning an impressive 71.9 acres, this historic zoo was created to honor Prince Edward VIII's visit and showcases over nine hundred species of animals, birds, and reptiles. Among its fascinating inhabitants are majestic white tigers, playful hippopotamuses, and rare Rhesus monkeys.

The zoo is clean and well-maintained, with proper walking paths and shaded areas. There’s also a toy train and a small museum inside, making it an enjoyable and educational experience for both kids and adults. A must-visit spot in the city!

Visited the Lucknow Zoo recently. Overall, it's a small but decent zoo with a fair collection of animals and a good layout. However, I was quite surprised by the lack of proper facilities, especially considering this is in the state capital. The park area is in poor condition and needs urgent attention. There’s very little for kids to explore and enjoy beyond the animals. The adventure zone is substandard, and most activities there are chargeable — even the most basic ones. Not all families can afford to pay extra for things that should ideally be free or included with the entry ticket. On top of that, the staff in the adventure zone were rude and unhelpful. On a positive note, the zoo train is fun and reasonably priced — definitely a highlight for children. Overall, an okay experience, but I sincerely urge the concerned authorities to improve the kids’ facilities and overall maintenance. For a zoo located in a state capital, expectations are naturally higher.

The museum is the only thing i found impressive. You can see a real egyptian mummy kept here and many more crazy stuff. Talking about the zoo, the authorities do not care about maintaining the things. The place where snakes are kept was in the same pity condition as it was 10 years back. I dont understand where all the money goes. Also the parking area condition is very bad they should definitely give it a makeover. Apart from the infra, the animals are quite decent in number. I think they have all the important ones which is a good thing. Also the toy train is very enjoyable, everyone should try it. Overall its a fun place to visit but you wont feel visiting it again unless you find a different group of people to go with because its not just about the place its about the people.

First of all I want to request zoo administration to please focus on cleanliness of the premises. Very dirty and bad smell surroundings. Experience of toy train is very bad . On weekends and public holidays they sell more tickets than seats and public fight with each other for seat and no management or any queue. As well as train move so fast that we cannot enjoy or watch beautiful sights at last you have to walk out. You can not watch animals from 360 degree you have to wait animals to come out near barricade to watch out.

Here’s a sample review you can use for Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar Memorial Park, Lucknow — you can adjust the tone depending on whether you want it for Google Maps, a travel blog, or a college report: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5) Review: Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar Memorial Park, Lucknow Dr. Ambedkar Memorial Park in Gomti Nagar, Lucknow, is one of the most stunning architectural landmarks in Uttar Pradesh. The park is a magnificent tribute to Dr. B. R. Ambedkar, the architect of the Indian Constitution, and other great social reformers who fought for equality and justice.

It is a very big park (memorial )made by Ms Mayawati when she was CM of UP. Entry ticket is priced at ₹ 25 per person. Contrary to facilities at other gardens, even Senior citizens have to buy tickets. Very large open areas so wouldn't be advisable to visit in the heat of the day due to lack of trees and Shade. The memorial is big and tastefully designed. The architecture is good, with several elephant statues adding to its uniqueness. Highlight of the park is its meticulously designed pathways and open space. Restrooms are available.

Dr. B. R. Ambedkar Memorial Park: A Monument of Grandeur ​Dr. B. R. Ambedkar Memorial Park, formally known as Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar Samajik Parivartan Prateek Sthal, is an essential visit in Lucknow. Far exceeding the scope of a typical park, this expansive 107-acre monument serves as a breathtaking, solemn tribute to Dr. Ambedkar and other pivotal figures of social justice in India. ​The architecture is the park’s primary draw, featuring vast stretches of imported red sandstone that create an atmosphere of immense grandeur and permanence. The highlight is the towering central stupa and the Pratibimb Sthal, which features dozens of imposing marble elephant statues symbolizing strength and resilience. The complex also houses the Samajik Parivartan Sangrahalaya, a museum offering vital context on the social reform movement. ​While it is open and spacious during the day, the park truly transforms after sunset. The stunning illumination of the monuments casts a magical glow, making it a peaceful and visually spectacular place for an evening stroll. Remember to wear comfortable shoes—there is much walking involved to appreciate this monumental, contemplative, and historically rich landmark.

Structurally it's worth it... I mean it has been planned to present the values of Bhim Rao Ambedkar, but then this is where the praise stops. Instead of calling it a park, it should have been called as a recreation center for appreciating values of Baba Saheb. When it comes to calling it a park, there are no trees, just marble structures. Recommended to go in early morning before 10:30am or after 5:30pm Summer season it must be a heat factory. Basic entry ticket available

A truly mystical and peaceful place! This ancient tree is believed to be from the Mahabharata era, linked to Queen Kunti and Lord Krishna.

A great historical place, which unfortunately is severely underrated. This Parijat tree is deemed to be originated from Samudra-Manthan, which Pandavas have again brought back from heaven and planted by Arjun at current place during their exile. The tree remains green for 6 months and goes dry for next 6 months in the year. The place is easily approachable by own conveyance, however public transport can be time consuming. It worths visiting it, if you are nearby or on religious tour.

The Parijāt Tree, located in Kintoor (Kintur) village about 38 km east of Barabanki in Uttar Pradesh, is a unique and sacred botanical wonder. Here's why it's revered: --- 🌳 What Makes It Special 1. Baobab in India This is an Adansonia digitata (African baobab) — a species native to sub‑Saharan Africa. Its presence in Uttar Pradesh is extraordinary and unmatched in India . 2. Legendary Roots Mythology associates the tree with the Mahabharata: One belief is that Arjun brought the tree from heaven to honor his mother Kunti, who used its flowers to offer to Lord Shiva. This act is said to have blessed the Pandavas with victory . Another version suggests Krishna brought it for Queen Satyabhama from Indralok (realm of the gods) . 3. Kalpavriksha or Wish‑Granting Tree According to Harivansh Purāṇ, Parijāt is a divine Kalpavriksha — a mythological wish‑granting tree found in heaven. The one in Kintoor is believed to uniquely embody that celestial power . Flowering & Appearance The flowers are white, and when they dry, they turn a golden color, adding to the mystical appeal. Flowering is rare and generally occurs after Ganga Dassehara, often drawing pilgrims . Folklore claims the flowers bloom only at night due to a curse from Lord Indra, hence they never bloom in the day . Protection & Preservation The site is fenced and preserved by local authorities and the National Botanical Research Institute (NBRI), which has treated infections and is working to clone the tree via tissue culture. Physical offerings had previously damaged the trunk, prompting stricter conservation efforts . 🛕 Visiting Information Location: Kintoor village, ~38 km east of Barabanki; about 63 km from Lucknow (1.5‑2 hrs by road) . **How to Reach:** Via road: From Lucknow take the L‑Bh Bypass → Ramnagar → Kintoor.

Indira Gandhi Botanical Garden ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Indira Gandhi Botanical Garden is a serene and well-maintained spot, perfect for nature enthusiasts and families alike. Spread over a vast area, it boasts a diverse range of flora, making it an ideal place for those looking to explore plant varieties or simply enjoy some greenery. The walking paths are well-laid and shaded, offering a pleasant experience even during sunny days. The garden is equipped with seating areas and open spaces, which are great for picnics or relaxation. It’s also a good spot for morning walkers and joggers, as the environment feels fresh and rejuvenating. However, the lack of proper signage in certain areas can make navigation slightly confusing for first-time visitors. Additionally, the cleanliness of public restrooms could be improved. Overall, the Indira Gandhi Botanical Garden is a delightful escape from the city’s hustle and bustle, offering a peaceful retreat into nature. With minor improvements, it has the potential to become a top-tier botanical destination.

The Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Mandir is not just a temple, it feels like stepping into history and divinity together. Visitors say the moment you enter, there’s a special energy in the air—a mix of devotion, pride, and peace. The architecture shines with intricate carvings, and the chants make the whole place feel alive. Even though the crowd is huge, people describe it as a once-in-a-lifetime experience—where waiting in line itself feels like part of the spiritual journey. Many call it “a temple that gives goosebumps”, because standing before Shri Ram’s garbh-griha (sanctum) feels like a blessing. ✨ Truly, an emotional and unforgettable experience for anyone visiting Ayodhya.

There is set procedure to enter the Temple. Once you reach the entrance, there is a hall on your left. This hall may be used for some relaxation or for using washroom. Then there is designated area where metal pipes are fixed to guide you in Queue. Then you simply follow instructions. The temple is still being constructed. All the arrangements are very welcoming. In mid-november there are quite reasonable crowds and entry waiting time is minimum. जय श्री राम The visiting experience is nicely managed. Lockers are available for keeping belongings, they insist that you remove money from your purse before keeping your purse ( Ladies and gents) in lockers. Keep shoes also here.

🌺 श्री राम जन्मभूमि मंदिर, अयोध्या 🌺 “लिखना आरंभ करने से पहले मैं श्री हनुमान जी से तथा श्री राम जी से आज्ञा लेता हूँ। ऐसे धार्मिक और भावनात्मक स्थानों का वर्णन अवश्य करना चाहिए, ताकि लोगों की जिज्ञासा और श्रद्धा शांत हो सके। प्रभु की प्रेरणा से यह शब्द लिख रहा हूँ।” 🌺 Ram Mandir, Ayodhya – A Divine Experience Beyond Words 🌺 The holy land of Ayodhya radiates divinity, and at its heart stands the magnificent Shree Ram Mandir, a living symbol of faith, history, and devotion.

Ayodhya Ram Mandir is a divine and historic place that fills every devotee with immense faith and pride. The main temple, with its magnificent architecture and beautifully carved pillars, creates a truly spiritual experience. The idol of Prabhu Shri Ram in the Garbhagriha brings peace to the heart the moment you see it. The entire temple complex is still under construction, with several facilities, mandaps, and surrounding areas being developed. Due to the ongoing work, some areas are restricted and there can be a bit of dust and temporary arrangements. But it is exciting to witness the grand vision taking shape day by day. Even with large crowds, the management is doing a good job of controlling queues and maintaining cleanliness. Night lighting makes the temple look heavenly and worth watching again and again. Overall, Ayodhya Ram Mandir is not only a sacred pilgrimage site but also a symbol of devotion and cultural heritage. Once the complete complex is ready, it will be one of the most beautiful temples in the world.

The Ram Mandir in Ayodhya is not just a temple — it is the embodiment of faith, patience, and the timeless spirit of devotion that has lived in the hearts of millions for centuries. Standing majestically on the banks of the sacred Sarayu River, this divine structure radiates serenity and grandeur, merging the essence of ancient Indian architecture with the precision of modern craftsmanship. From the very first glimpse, the temple’s intricate carvings, majestic pillars, and towering shikhara inspire awe. Every stone seems to whisper the story of Lord Rama — of righteousness, courage, and dharma. The temple complex is beautifully designed, spacious, and infused with an aura of peace. As you walk through its corridors, the fragrance of devotion fills the air, and the rhythmic chants of “Jai Shri Ram” echo like a timeless hymn of unity. What makes the Ram Mandir truly special is not only its architectural brilliance but the profound emotion it evokes. Generations of prayers, hope, and perseverance have culminated in this divine reality. Whether one visits as a devotee, a traveler, or an admirer of art and history, the experience is deeply moving — a journey inward as much as it is outward. As the golden rays of the sun touch the temple at dawn, the marble glows like it’s alive — a reminder that this is not just stone and structure, but a living temple of faith. The atmosphere around Ayodhya has transformed too — vibrant, welcoming, and filled with spiritual energy. In every sense, the Ram Mandir is a testament to India’s rich heritage and its eternal devotion to truth and divinity. Visiting it is not merely a pilgrimage — it is an experience that stays in the heart forever.

This temple is located at the birthplace of God Ram.Visited this temple on a weekday at around 13:00-13:45 hours. This temple has excellent management of crowd.There is separate entrance and exit.Enough availability of drinking water and medical facilities.Enough lockers are available for keeping belongings like bags ,footwear, cameras, mobile phones, etc. and separate areas for depositing and withdrawing articles.Initially photography of the main parts of the temple were allowed but now it is prohibited(probably due to security issues).The temple complex is magnificent with beautiful carvings of different deities such as ganesha,etc on stone walls. Till to this date of writing this review, only about 40% of the work of the temple complex has been completed. Once completed, the temple complex would be more magnificent.

This might not be the centuries-old heritage *Sita Rasoi*, but the vibe here definitely feels the same. I was staying at a nearby hotel, just about 500 meters from Hanumangarhi, and came across this place (also recommended by the hotel reception guy). They serve only thali meals- nothing fancy, just simple, homely food. And honestly, that’s all you need at the end of the day. We loved it so much that we came back the next day too! The thali includes: * 4 rotis * dal * chawal (rice) * 2 sabzis * raita It’s more than sufficient for one adult. The best part? The price is just ₹100! Super reasonable. The owner, Suraj Agarwal, is very warm and friendly—he even shared a lot of interesting information about Ayodhya with us. If you’re nearby, definitely give this place a try..!!

As Varanasi (Kashi) is called Shiv Nagri (City of Lord Shiva), similarly Prayagraj is known as Vishnu Nagari (City of Lord Vishnu). Veni Madhav Mandir located at Daranganj close to the sacrosanct Triveni Sangam is one of the oldest shrines dedicated to Lord Vishnu and Mata Lakshmi in Prayag. Veni Madhav Temple, also called Lakshmi Narayan Temple. The temple enshrines black stone idols of Radha Krishna. Lord Vishnu along with his consort Goddess Lakshmi is worshipped here. This is one of the Dwadasha Madhav Temples of this historical city. Hindu scriptures emphasize that without visiting Veni Madhav temple, the act of taking a dip in the Triveni Sangam remains spiritually incomplete. In Treta Yug, a fearsome demon named GAJKARNA wreaked havoc across the three worlds. Lord Vishnu, in his infinite compassion, sent Narada Muni to find a solution. Gajkarna, upon Narada Muni’s advice, took a purifying bath in the Triveni Sangam, which miraculously cured his ailments. But Greedy demon drank the waters of the three sacred rivers, causing a catastrophic drought. Lord Vishnu descended to Prayagraj. After a fierce battle spanning three days, Lord Vishnu defeated Gajkarna, restoring the sacred waters to their rightful place. Recognizing the importance of safeguarding the Triveni Sangam, Lord Vishnu chose to reside in Prayagraj in the form of Veni Madhav, ensuring its protection for eternity. Veni Madhav is Main temple of Prayagraj according to Matsya Puran, Agni Puran and Padma Puran. Veni Madhav Temple Darshanam Timing: Morning: 5 AM to 12 PM EVENING: 4 PM to 10 PM. Date of Darshanam: 22-Mar-2025 @ 14:08 P.M and 17:13 P.M

Shri Veni Madhav is the Nagar Devta (i.e., the Lord of the City.) of Prayagraj and a must visit temple after a holy dip in the Triveni Sangam. Triveni sangsm bath is considered as complete only when we worship here after dip. This is one of the 12 Madhav temples as per legend & the most important one. The deity is very beautiful to behold and renowned to bestow boons to devotees. (Bindhu Madhava temple is in Varanasi. The deities are very beautiful) It is the main Madhav temple of Prayag out of 12 madhavs. Brahma did yagya here. It is also taposthali of Maharshi Onkar dev giri, who stayed on asan of nails to get spiritual powers. According to Matsya Purana, Agni Purana, and Padma Purana Veni Madhav Mandir is the main Mandir of Prayagraj. This temple is of lord vishnu which is established in Treta Yuga i. e. 10000 BC

Shahi Pul, Jaunpur

Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Bridge
Shahi Pul or Munim Khan Pul or Akbari Pul or Mughal Pul or Jaunpur Bridge is a 16th-century bridge over the Gomti River in Jaunpur, Uttar Pradesh, India. Shahi Pul is located 1.7 kilometres (1.1 mi) north of Jaunpur railway station, 7.3 kilometres (4.5 mi) northwest of Jaffarabad, 16.2 kilometres (10.1 mi) north-northeast of Mariahu and 26.6 kilometres (16.5 mi) west-northwest of Kirakat city.[1]The Mughal emperor Akbar ordered the construction of the Shahi Bridge, which was completed by Munim Khan in the year 1568–69. [2] The bridge took four years to complete. [3] It was designed by the Afghan architect Afzal Ali. [4]

It's the only bridge where we see the market and shops on the pul. It was built around 1300AD on the Gomti River.Shahi Pul stands as a testament to Jaunpur's rich history and architectural heritage....
Vartika — Google review
Shahi Pul, located in Jaunpur, is one of Uttar Pradesh's most iconic Mughal-era structures, embodying both historical significance and architectural brilliance. The bridge was commissioned during the reign of Emperor Akbar in 1564, following his directive to address the challenge faced by locals and traders who needed to cross the Gomti River. Akbar appointed his governor, Munim Khan (also referenced as Munim Muhammad Baki), to oversee the construction of this essential bridge. The architectural design was crafted by Afzal Ali, a renowned architect from Afghanistan. Spanning 654 feet in length and 26 feet in width, Shahi Pul took four years to complete and was considered a marvel of its time. The bridge stands on 26 arches, blending Indian and Mughal architectural styles, making it unique in India. Along its span, octagonal pillars support chhatris (domed pavilions), which were originally built to provide shelter for traders operating stalls on the bridge. These chhatris still offer views over the river to travelers and visitors, preserving the historic aura. The central section of the bridge is notable for a large quadrangular platform featuring a stone sculpture of a lion poised over an elephant, a powerful symbol located opposite a small mosque built into the structure. This highlights the cultural syncretism prevalent in Jaunpur's history, with spaces for both Hindu and Muslim practices integrated into the bridge’s design. Shahi Pul’s strategic and commercial significance helped boost Jaunpur’s economic activities during the Mughal era, as it facilitated uninterrupted trade and communication across the river. Its durability has withstood centuries of floods and natural disasters, although it suffered major damage in the 1934 earthquake and was subsequently restored to its former glory. Currently, the bridge is maintained as a protected heritage monument, but its condition is threatened by neglect, overgrowth, and structural wear. Nevertheless, it continues to serve as a public thoroughfare and remains a living testament to Jaunpur’s past, bridging not only the two riverbanks but centuries of history and culture. Overall, Shahi Pul stands out as a noteworthy location in Jaunpur that embodies historical significance, cultural richness, and everyday vibrancy. It is a place where history is not just preserved but lived, offering a meaningful experience for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the local heritage and lifestyle of this region.

Riverside temple complex with icons & altars dedicated to the region's presiding protector-goddess.
🔱 Jai Mata Di 🔱 Shri Maa Vindhyavasini Temple is one of the most powerful and sacred temples of Bharat. Maa Vindhyavasini is considered an incarnation of Maa Durga and is deeply worshipped by devotees from all over the country. The energy in the temple is truly divine and you can feel the blessings of Maa as soon as you step inside. 🙏 The darshan of Maa is very soulful. The murti of Maa Vindhyavasini is beautifully decorated with flowers, sarees and ornaments, and the aura inside the sanctum fills your heart with devotion and peace. Many people visit here to seek blessings for health, happiness and protection from negative energies. 🌺 However, the queue management and cleanliness around the temple premises can be improved. The crowd is quite large, on weekends and festival days, and there is not enough guidance or organization to handle the rush properly. Still, the spiritual power of the place is unmatched. A visit to Maa Vindhyavasini Temple fills you with strength and devotion. Maa truly listens to every prayer and protects her children like a true Mother. 🌼 🔱 Jai Mata Di 🔱

We booked our Dev Diwali boat service through Visit Kashi Travel Company, and it was an unforgettable experience! The arrangements were smooth, and everything was perfectly managed. We got to witness the entire stretch of 84 ghats beautifully illuminated with diyas. The laser show and fire show were absolutely mesmerizing and added magic to the evening. The boat was clean, safe, and comfortable, even amidst the crowd. Their team was polite and professional, guiding us throughout the ride. We also enjoyed watching the Ganga Aarti from the boat — a divine moment! Everything was well-timed and perfectly coordinated. Overall, the experience was peaceful, spiritual, and full of joy. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Varanasi during Dev Diwali!

Ashoka Pillar, Sarnath

Mentioned on

Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Monuments & Statues
The Ashoka Pillar, located in the Sarnath Deer Park just 10km north of Varanasi, is a significant historical site and a popular tourist attraction. This 17m tall pillar, built by Emperor Ashoka, is housed in a glass enclosure and features sandstone remains. The pillar bears an engraving of four lions back to back, which is the official symbol of India.
The Ashoka Pillar in Sarnath is a very special and old monument in India. It was made by Emperor Ashoka more than 2,000 years ago to remember the place where Lord Buddha gave his first teaching after getting wisdom (called enlightenment). The pillar was once very tall, about 50 feet high, and made of smooth stone. But today, it is broken. You can still see the bottom part of the pillar at the Sarnath archaeological site. The top part of the pillar had a beautiful carving called the Lion Capital. It shows four lions standing back-to-back. This Lion Capital is so important that it became the National Emblem of India in 1950. That means it is now the official symbol of our country! You can even see it on Indian coins and government papers. The Lion Capital also has pictures of a bull, horse, lion, elephant, and a special wheel called the Dharma Chakra. These show different parts of Buddha’s life and his message of peace, love, and kindness. If you visit Sarnath, you can see the pillar base near the Dhamek Stupa and the Lion Capital in the Sarnath Museum, which is very close. Timings: The site is open from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM The museum is closed on Fridays Tickets: Indians: ₹20 Foreign visitors: ₹250 Museum may have a separate ticket

Timeless Symbol of Dharma and National Pride Visiting the Ashoka Pillar at Sarnath is like stepping into the soul of India’s ancient wisdom. This iconic monument, commissioned by Emperor Ashoka in the 3rd century BCE, stands as a powerful testament to peace, tolerance, and the spread of Buddhism. Though the original pillar is now preserved in fragments, the site evokes deep reverence—especially with the Lion Capital, which proudly serves as India’s national emblem. The archaeological site is beautifully maintained, with informative plaques and a serene ambience that invites reflection. The nearby museum adds depth to the experience, showcasing relics and sculptures that bring history to life. Whether you’re a history enthusiast, a spiritual seeker, or a proud Indian, the Ashoka Pillar is a must-visit. It’s not just a monument—it’s a message carved in stone: of unity, wisdom, and the enduring legacy of dharma. 🕊️ A place that humbles the heart and elevates the mind.

I wish I had a time machine to turn the dial and see these places through different phases, starting from Buddha's time to Samrat Ashoka and experience this place is its full glory. Thanks to ASI and govt for keeping the place clean and serene.

The Ashoka Pillar at Sarnath is a remarkable monument built by Emperor Ashoka in the 3rd century BCE to mark the site where Lord Buddha delivered his first sermon. Crafted from a single block of polished sandstone, it showcases the exceptional artistry of the Mauryan era. The original **Lion Capital**, which once crowned the pillar, is now preserved in the Sarnath Museum and proudly serves as India’s national emblem. Though the pillar stands broken today, its presence continues to inspire awe, symbolizing peace, strength, and the enduring legacy of Buddhism.

The Ashoka Pillar at Sarnath is an exceptionally significant historical site, revered by travelers and history buffs alike. Erected by Emperor Ashoka in the 3rd century BCE, it marks the sacred spot where Lord Buddha delivered his first sermon, setting the "Wheel of Dharma" in motion.

A powerful symbol of India’s ancient history and Buddhist heritage! The Ashokan Pillar at Sarnath was originally erected by Emperor Ashoka in the 3rd century BCE to mark the sacred spot where Lord Buddha delivered his first sermon after enlightenment. Though the pillar now stands broken, its base remains at the original site beside the Dhamek Stupa, and the famous Lion Capital — India’s National Emblem — is safely preserved inside the nearby Sarnath Archaeological Museum. The polished sandstone pillar once stood over 12 meters high and carried Ashoka’s edicts promoting peace, moral conduct, and compassion. The craftsmanship and polish, even after more than 2,000 years, are remarkable. It’s humbling to imagine the full structure as it once was — a timeless reminder of India’s message of “Ahimsa” and “Dharma.” Entry: Access to the pillar site is included with the Dhamek Stupa ticket — ₹25 for Indian citizens (₹20 online via ASI portal) and ₹300 for foreign visitors. Photography is allowed inside the complex . The area is clean, quiet, and well maintained by the Archaeological Survey of India. Drinking water, toilets, and shaded rest areas are available near the gate. Local guides are also available for a small fee to explain the full history and significance of the site. Visiting the Ashokan Pillar at Sarnath is not just about seeing an ancient monument — it’s about connecting with a living legacy that still shapes India’s identity today. A must-visit for history lovers, Buddhists, and anyone exploring Varanasi.

The Koshi River, also called the Sapta Koshi for its seven major tributaries. This is one of the largest rivers in Nepal, originating in the Himalayas, it flows southward, cutting through the Mahabharat Range and the Churia Hills before entering the Terai plains. The Koshi is significant for its immense water volume and its role in irrigation, hydropower generation, and supporting diverse ecosystems, including the Koshi Tappu Wildlife Reserve. However, its volatile nature, particularly during monsoon seasons, has earned it the moniker "Sorrow of Bihar" in India due to frequent devastating floods.

I traveled by bike to the Koshi River, and it was an incredible experience. The journey was thrilling, with scenic landscapes, fresh air, and the excitement of the open road. Riding alongside the river, I felt a deep sense of peace as I took in the vast expanse of water and the surrounding natural beauty. Watching the sunset over the river made the trip even more memorable, making it a truly refreshing and unforgettable adventure.

The bridge is already 16 Years beyond it was meant for. Needs immediate reconstruction/Repairs. With rain and flash floods increasing every year, risk of bridge collapse and loss of lives is sadly on cards.

The Kosi River near Mathura is a peaceful and scenic spot that offers a refreshing break from the hustle of city life. Surrounded by natural beauty and a calm atmosphere, it's a perfect place to relax, take a quiet walk, or simply sit and enjoy the flowing water. I visited during the early morning hours, and the experience was magical – the soft sounds of the river, cool breeze, and the golden sunrise reflecting off the water created a serene setting that felt almost spiritual. It's also a nice stop for those traveling between Delhi and Agra. If you're into photography or nature, you’ll appreciate the picturesque views, especially during the monsoon when the river is fuller and the surroundings are lush and green. While it's not a major tourist destination, that’s part of its charm – it remains relatively untouched and peaceful. Just make sure to keep the place clean and respect the natural environment. Highly recommend for a short visit if you're passing through the area or exploring the Mathura region.
