Darwaza Full Movie Hindi

[Agenor Ramadan]

Itis adjacent to the Asafi Imambara, Teele Wali Masjid and has become a symbol for the city of Lucknow. It used to mark the entrance to Old Lucknow. When the city grew and expanded, it was used as an entrance to a palace which was later demolished by the British Raj following the Indian Rebellion of 1857.

The gate was modelled after a historical gate in Constantinople. Rumi refers to Rm, the historical name used by the Islamic world to denote the region roughly corresponding to Anatolia, or the dominion of the former Eastern Roman Empire. "Rumi Darwaza" in Hindustani translates to "Turkish Gate" in English.[4]

The darwaza is distinct from Mughal architecture in terms of style and materials used. The design consists of a big arch and on top of that, there is a half-spherical dome resting on half-octagonal plan. The gate is built using thin burnt clay bricks and lime-crushed brick aggregate mortar (Lakhori and Surkhi respectively, which was prevalent during the rule of Nawabs in the 18th century). The gate boasts of intricate carvings of flowers.[5][6][7]

The gate is situated between Bara Imambara and Chota Imambara. This place is generally very busy all day, is bustling with tourists on weekends. The streets are redeveloped similar to their earlier construction of hard brick roadways. The place has now become one of the most popular spots of the city.
