Roomi Gate- Lucknow

-

The Roomi Darwaza was built during the rule of Nawab Asaf-ud-Daulah in 1784 under a food for work programme. The Kingdom of Awadh was hit by a major famine and the self-respecting people of the province, refused to take help from the Royal Treasury. So, instead of handing out a dole, the Nawab initiated the construction of Rumi Darwaza and Bara Imambara in the city- the two most exemplary and striking models of the Awadhi architecture.
