Why go

It was here that the revolting sepoys and their civil compatriots of the first Liberation War (1857-1859) were publicly hanged. A large park surrounds the memorial, with various other monuments. It has a memorial dedicated to the soldiers killed by the British in the aftermath of the Indian Mutiny of 1857. It was built in 1858 at the initiative of Nawab Khwaja Abdul Ghani.
