Hussainabad Imambara |
|
Hussainabad Imambara is also known as the Chota ("small") Imambara, or the Palace of Lights. The raised bathing pool in front of it, which is approached via a spacious courtyard, adds to the overall atmosphere. Built in 1837 by Muhammad Ali Shah (1837-42), partly to provide famine relief through employment, the Imambara houses a silver faced throne, plus the tombs of important Avadhi personalities. |
