Lucknow: Today we are going to introduce you with the emperor of nawab Ghazi-ud-Din Haidar Shah who ruled over Awadh state during the period of (1814-1827 AD) and famous for constructing beautiful garden in Lucknow which was popular with the name of ‘Vilayati Bagh’.
Although some people consider that this ‘Vilayati Bagh’ was built his son Nasir-ud-Din Haider who succeeded him after his death during the time period of (1827-1837 AD).
Basically, the concept behind keeping the name of ‘Vilayati Bagh’ is this that Ghazi-ud-Din Haidar Shah and his Nasir-ud-Din Haider got married to European wife so to impress their wifes they constructed a European style garden and kept the name ‘Vilayati Bagh’.
Lucknow’s ‘Vilayati Bagh’ was once considered as glory of Awadh:
The glory of the garden is no longer left their but still some walls remaining along with stairs ending towards river Gomti can still be seen there. Now, during the British rule in 1920, this garden was declared a protected monument.
The reason behind this was that three British soldiers were killed and buried in ‘Vilayati Bagh’, who were died during rebel in the year between 1857 and 18 58 AD.
According to some experts they believe the main concept behind keeping the name of this ‘Vilayati Bagh’ that many plants of European species were planted in this garden that is why this is called ‘Vilayati Bagh’.
Interestingly, this ‘Vilayati Bagh’ was once considered to be the glory of Lucknow (Awadh) is left in very bad condition now days but after the Archaeological survey of India has shown interest in restoring the beauty of this garden for the past few years it will be renewed.
