The iconic Rumi Darwaza, also known as the Turkish Gate, was erected in 1784 during the reign of Nawab Asaf-ud-Daula.

For those travelling on a time crunch, the Bada Imambara and the Chota Imambara pose two attractive getaway destinations that can explored at once. The two structures are located very close to each other.
