Lucknow in Pictures
I was at IIM Lucknow, attending a tourism conference. What I liked a lot was the idea of the conference organizers to give us a day to see around Lucknow. So, I of course have clicked a lot of pictures. The time of the day was from late morning to noon, so too much light to click good pictures, still I have tried.
PS. If you are a conference delegate and if you would like to download a few pictures (or if you would like to see still pictures in an album), please click here. If you need any assistance in this regard, do not hesitate to let me know.
Tourism – The major industry.I wish tourism to grow.And I wish to serve tourism.
nice blog… and Lucknow looks very pretty!! Also that taj pics are lovely… I’ve not seen the Taj as yet… something I must do!!
Nice, very nice. Lucknow is a city with a very vibrant and rich history. Did you know that famous thumari “Babul mora naihar chuton jaye” (sung by many famous singers) was writeen by Lucknow’s last nawab Wajid Ali Shah when he was exiled from Lucknow.Visit http://www.flickr.com/photos/djgold/661025 to see few rare photos of Lucknow. And, see my Lucknow photo collection here: http://atulks.myphotoalbum.com/view_album.php?set_albumName=album46

Really nice photos. I liked La Martiniere College photos.Would definitely love to visit this city.
hey M- nice photos!!! i particularly like the ones of the passages. how is the ladakh trip plan coming along? 🙂
nice pics… have read a lot about lucknow, but havent been able to go there as yet!
hey very well sequenced. Amazed at your work. Your a documentary person now! just that some of the subtitles cannot be seen because of the backdrop colour also being white. Perhaps you can touch up on them. And the background score is nice. Trust it would have been more ethnic if you could have experimented with some local Lucknowi or classical music tunes. And lastly I would like to know more about this tourism conference.
Hobo, those are good thoughts indeed.Thank you Patricia for the visit to my blog and your comment. I am sure you would love visiting the Taj Mahal.Atul, thanks for sharing your pictures and he link to Flickr set. I know there is so much more to Lucknow than I could see in this one visit.No Krishna, this is from the audio swap from youtube.Lakshmi thanks. We all are addicted to tourism!Rajesh, do visit, just make sure the month is cooler than April.N, the passages are my favorites too. The Ladakh trip unfortunately is not happening this year.Anu, thanks, you should go one day.Dablogs, many thanks for your kind words. The conference was an academic conference on tourism at IIM Lucknow, providing a platform for researchers from all over the country to share their work.
Nice Pictures!! Did you get any new insight on the tourism industry?Did you eat the famous Lucknow biryani?
That’s funny 🙂 Just before I traveled to Switzerland, I had lunch at our local Indian eatery. The owner is from Luknow and was talking in vibrant colours about his hometown. Now, after seeing your pictures, I probably really should visit that town 🙂
Vamsee I probably got more insight into Indian higher education but it was a lot of fun to see what my colleagues are researching.Fida, visit in a cooler month, it has many surprises!
M, could u tell me how you titled and posted those snaps in the YouTube. It actually allows me the cool slide interface to choose from where I want to start.
Superb pictures too. 😉
Arvind, many thanks for your comments. I make the slide show in windows movie maker and then the captions in youtube itself. But I wonder if this is what you are asking?
Your pictures are fantastic!
