Amazing, cannot believe that it is the same river when it enters Lucknow near Pucca Pul. The quality of water will be excellent I believe where the river has a bridge on Itaunja-Mal road. Surprisingly I went to Asti village long back to see the source of Kukrail river and the water is amazingly fresh there too. The spoilsport starts after Khurramnagar bridge.
Very nice Himanshu. I live in Lucknow and do biking in the outskirts of Lucknow on my free days to discover rural aspect of Lucknow as I am sick of city life. Today I went to a village called Bhauli in BKT and was heading to this temple too, actually planned to go all the way on Itaunja-Mal road but some villagers warned me about bike snatching incidents and told me not to go alone as Kolvan-Saidapur stretch is quite deserted and heaven for robbers.

The pond is ecircled by stairs from all the directions.This type of structure has been a very common practice for public bath ponds in India, genessis can be tracked from Mohen-jo-daro ,Indus valley civilisation.
The name of this town come from this ancient Talab ( water pond) that was constructed by Raja Tripur Chandra Bakshi in the year 1840, therefore this pond was called 'Bakshi ka Talab' ( Bakshi’s pond). Raja Tripur Chand Bakshi was an erstwhile war co-ordinator of Nawab Amjad Ali Shah of Lucknow (Awadh) during the period 1842 to 1845. This beautiful ancient heritage structure have ghats on four sides of the pond and eight historical tombs. In addition, you may see two Krishna and Shiva temples situated on the ‘talab’ campus.

Dashashwamedh Ghat in Varanasi is located close to "Vishwanath Temple", and is probably the most spectacular ghat. Two Hindu mythologies are associated with it: According to one, Lord Brahma created it to welcome Lord Shiva. According to another, Lord Brahma sacrificed ten horses in a yajna here. A group of priests daily in the evening at this ghat perform "Agni Pooja" (Worship to Fire) wherein a dedication is made to Lord Shiva, River Ganga, Surya (Sun), Agni (Fire), and the whole universe.
