Lucknow's Palace of Lights The Chota Imambara, also called the Hussainabad Imambara, was built in 1838 by Nawab Muhammad Ali Shah of Awadh as a congregation hall and his own mausoleum. Famous for the chandeliers and lamps that earned it the nickname 'Palace of Lights', it carries a gilded dome and Arabic calligraphy across its facade.
