When my brother discovered my plan, he also wanted to go. We both booked a ticket via Air India. As always, they provide great service and amenities on board. I could not complain further with the way they handled every situation on the plane. When we arrived at Lucknow, we strolled around the city first before checking out different attractions. We stumbled upon Chota Imambara. The structure was beautiful and very regal. It is historically significant because it serves as a tomb by Mohammed Ali Shah.
