Lucknow Information Guide

For those with an interest in culture – be it art, history or architecture, Lucknow is sure to wow you. Located in Uttar Pradesh, this city, called the Paris of the East, is often thought of in correlation with its famed street food. If you're travelling from Hyderabad to Lucknow, you're no stranger to how the rich culture of the Nawabs have filtered down to the 21st century. So spend a few days here, taking in the gigantic monuments, the old gardens and try to take back the essence of Lucknow.

Monuments to Marvel at in Lucknow

Bara Imambara is one of the most popular landmarks in the city, thanks to its unique architecture that dates back to 1784. In the past, this monument was used for public hearings but today, it is one of the biggest tourist attractions. So if you have the time and interest lose yourself in the maze of passageways and corridors and notice how the entire structure has been created without support of wood, iron or stone.

Next, make your way to the Tombs of Saadat Ali Khan and the Begum. While it's not a very imposing structure, you'll be amazed at how beautifully designed it is. The walls of the façade have fine stucco work and the huge turrets and dome are embellished too, but the arched doors and windows are what will make great backgrounds for family photographs. Don't forget to visit Kaiserbagh Palace – the Nawab at that time anticipated it would be the eighth wonder of the world! Jama Masjid, too, has a great deal of significance, so do stop by!

Heritage Walk in Lucknow

As you know, Lucknow is a treasure trove of heritage sites, and sometimes, the best way to explore is on foot. You could choose a guided tour, if you prefer, or simply create a route of your own. The old city has a lot of interesting places to see and LalPul, a heritage bridge across the Gomti River is the best place to start. You can walk to sites like ChhotaImambara, the British Residency Complex, Rumi Darwaza and other smaller sites like Chowk Bazaar and PhoolWaliGali. In case you get hungry, you'll never be short of food options. Feast on some delicious Tunday Kebab, NihariGosht, UlteTawekeparanthe and Galawti kebab and when you're done, continue your tour of the city.

The Gardens of Lucknow

Even the gardens tell a majestic tale of the life of Nawabs, since many used to be the gardens of palaces. Visit Dilkusha Garden which is connected to the Dilkusha Palace, a great area to walk or jog in, with the ruined palace adding a historic feel to the place. The SwarnaJayantiVihar Park has a kids' play area while the Ram Lohia Park is ideal for picnics, with the artificial lake adding to its aesthetics.

You'll feel like visiting every place Lucknow has to offer, so ensure you create a do-able itinerary to utilize your time well.
