St. Stephen's Church (CNI), the lesser known Anglican cousin to the famous Roman Catholic Basilica on the mount.
Today in history, 170 years ago on 26th December 1853, the current building of St. Stephen's Church was completed and it opened for worship - St. Stephen's Day.
Even though small in size, it began with ministering to the spiritual needs of about 20 families.

Slap the heretic!
Stories tell us that St. Nicholas of Myra, a bishop, decided to defend sacred tradition and the scriptural interpretation of the reality of Jesus as the Son of God the Father. He became so worked up that during one of the debates that he slapped the author of this heresy which was called Arianism. #ChristianArt #StNicholas #Art

All aboard the nostalgia train!
Most would remember the old toy train at Lucknow Zoo? Well, it's now proudly on display, a charming relic from 2009 to 2014. While its steam engine design might be a tad tacky, it holds a special place in our hearts.
For kids, toy trains are pure magic! The joy of watching them chug along brings smiles and laughter. Whether it's the rhythmic clickety-clack or the sheer excitement of a miniature adventure, these tiny locomotives create timeless memories.
Visit the Lucknow Zoo to relive the charm of this bygone train era and share the joy with the next generation!

Discovering history in the heart of Nakhaas, Lucknow!
🕰️ This old watering hole for horses takes us back to the era of tangas and traditional charm. 🐴 It's a rare gem amidst the hustle of modernity, where time seems to stand still. Imagine the clip-clop of hooves as horses quenched their thirst here.
Today, spotting a tanga is a rarity, let alone finding a functional watering hole for these majestic creatures.
I embraced the nostalgia, witnessed the legacy, clicked a picture and moved on trying to find the correct left turn for Akbari gate. #NakhaasChronicles #LucknowHeritage #Tanga #HorseWhispers #VintageVibes #HeritageGem #TimelessCharm #LucknowDiaries #HiddenHistory #EquestrianElegance #TravelBackInTime #ExploreLucknow #Neighbourhood_Historian

Nageene-wali Baradari at #LucknowZoo. This 24 pillared, white marble structure was built in the early 1800s & moved to its current location post the events of 1857. #Film song 'Inn aakhon ki masti ke' was shot here.

Jarnail Kothi, Lucknow.
One of the houses of the late phase was built by Nawab Sadat Ali Khan on the banks of Gomti to accommodate the Commander-in-Chief, the General. Thus in the course of time it came to be known as the ‘Jarnail Kothi’. A huge bungalow (or call it a small palace) was built by Nawab Sadat Ali Khan just by the side of Farhat Baksh Kothi (Chateau de Lyon).
