Places To Visit in Lucknow Connecting
Traveller The capital city of Uttar Pradesh and
one of the largest cities of northern India,
Lucknow, is also called the city of Nawabs.
Lucknow is a city with a diverse architectural
heritage extending from the 17th to the 18th
centuries. In the centre of the city there is an
epitome of mughal architecture - a Mughal
Gateway, Rumi Darwaza. In the neighbourhood,
there is Bara Imambara having Bhool Bhulaiya
tunnels on the upper floor which are a marvel in
and of themselves. The great Victorian
Husainabad Clock Tower, a historical landmark of
the city, is also close by. To summarise, there
is more than you can imagine to see and do in
this city with a unique creative flair for a
complete and wonderful vacation. There are
always plenty of sites and limited time for
tourists, which is why I've put together a list
of a few exclusive and fantastic tourist places
in Lucknow that can provide you with the thrill
you seek.

  • Tourist places to visit in Lucknow
  • Lucknow is famous for its Lucknowi Biryani,
    therefore if you're a foodie, Wahid's Biryani,
    Tunday Kababi, Lalla Biryani, and Dastarkhwan are
    the places to visit again and again. There are a
    number of restaurants that will prepare
    exquisitely flavorful food upon your request.
    Some of them are well-known to tourists, while
    others are highly regarded by locals, and I have
    a few recommendations for you coming straight
    from locals
  • Rahims Kulcha Nahari (breakfast, lunch, dinner)
  • Prakash Ki Mashoor Kulfi (desert)
  • Makhan Malai Chowk (sweet dishes)
  • Ratti Lal's Khasta (breakfast, snacks)
  • Mashi Biryani World (biryani, non-veg prep)
  • Click on the link to check out other amazing
    Eating Places in Lucknow.
  • A trip to a new city or a dream vacation would be
    incomplete without a visit to the local market,
    where you may discover the city's authenticity
    and traditional goods at the greatest price.
    Buying locally also supports small businesses,
    and you may enjoy unrivalled variety and the
    highest quality craftsmanship while having a fun
    day. Here are a few local marketplaces where even
    your mediocre bargaining abilities can get you a
    second bag!
  • Nakhas Market, Shahganj
  • Aminabad market, Aminabad
  • Lucknow Chowk
  • Hazratganj Market, Hazratganj
  • Janpath Market, Hazratganj
  • Shopping and Eateries is a part of a trip where
    the journey is incomplete without a perfect
    picture on an epic destination and an adventurous
    exploration. Here are a handful of the city's
    mesmerising sights you cannot overlook

1. Dilkusha Kothi Constructed in English baroque
style, Dilkusha Kothi is a masterpiece in the
Cantonment area of Lucknow. It represents both
British and Indian art forms from the past. This
18th century house is the remains of the history
that now welcomes tourists from around the
world. This was said to be the hunting house for
Nawabs originally, which was later converted
into the royal summer mansion. Dilkusha Kothi
welcomes tourists almost everyday from 8 AM to 7
PM, however it is advisable to confirm the
visiting hours prior to your visit.
2. Bara Imambara After the Nizamat Imambara, Bara
imambara is considered as the second largest in
terms of area coverage. This is an extremely
popular destination in the city due to its
beautiful architectural setup and the maze or the
bhool bhulaiya in the upper floor of the
building. It is said that there are more than
1000 ways to enter the maze and only 2 ways to
exit out of it. The aura of this place appeals to
tourists in several unexplained ways. After the
Victorian Husainabad Clock Tower, Bada Imambara
is another iconic landmark of the city. There are
several stories of Lucknowi Tehzeeb associated
with this place that you can explore on your
visit.
3. Amrapali Water Park The water park is a place
to splash and have fun in water regardless of the
age group. It's a wonderful destination to relax
and enjoy the music in the water with friends
and family. Amrapali Water Park has its own
resort, so if you are willing to have some extra
special fun time, you can book yourself a room as
well. Apart from this, the park also offers
exciting activities that don't include playing in
water like Camel rides and more. The large
number of amazing slides in the park promises to
deliver the thrill of the day.

4. Lucknow Zoo (Nawab Wajid Ali Shah Zoological
Garden) Kids love animals, Grown-ups love when
kids have fun and the memories from childhood.
To reminisce the good memories, the Zoo/
Zoological Park is an ultimate choice to explore
the wildlife amidst the busy city. There are more
than 463 mammals, 298 birds, and 72 reptiles
representing 97 species in the garden for a
complete adventurous experience. The zoo is a
home to the Royal Bengal Tiger, White Bengal
Tiger, Blackbuck, Indian Rhinoceros, Asiatic
Lion, Asiatic Elephant Grey Wolf, Hoolock
Gibbon, Zebra and more. The zoo remains closed
every monday and you can book your entry tickets
till 5 PM every other day.

5. British Residency Well, we are extremely
familiar with Nawabi style by now, so it comes to
no surprise that the British Residency was once
the residing place of a British general who was
a representative in the court of the Nawab. The
place is often known as The Residency or
Residency Complex. This 17th century
architecture, a century later, was subject to
the Siege of Lucknow as a part of the Indian
Rebellion. Now this place is the remains of
history and open to the public every other day of
the week except for Monday. Tourists have to pay
a small entry fee before entering the premises
but it's worth it.
