Rumi was colloquially used to mention something that has a roman Connection. The Nawabs of Awadh were Turkish Shia Muslims who came to India in the 16th Century. Their connection with Istanbul, which was the capital of Eastern Roman Empire , has reflected in their art & architecture. Rumi Darwaza is one such magnificent piece of architecture which is a perfect blend of Indian and Turkish architecture. A must see place, whenever you visit Lucknow.
