Overview
History in Lucknow, stretches beyond the concrete walls of its monuments, spreads into the lanes of Lucknow and has many more nuances that can only be understood and appreciated in the lanes and by-lanes of Chowk. Lucknow is not just any other city, but a chapter that unfolds itself each time one visits this epicenter of culture.
We have been discovering and rediscovering this city since its own inception in 1994 and every time we design or redesign our products, we stumble upon a new piece of history that we wish to share with our guests.
We have exclusively designed a Heritage Walk, discovering the lanes and the by-lanes of Chowk. On this walking tour we explore the unexplored and explain the inexplicable. Understand how vast a history, this city of superlatives holds.

What to expect
Chowk
1h 30m · Admission ticket included
Chowk is an area where still one feels as if the clock has stopped moving or that it moved really slow, as till date, it preserves a lot of old world charm and people here have a Lucknow’s signature laid-back attitude. Lucknow’s Chowk is a vast area and in its periphery, are all the markets catering to all and with everything, at least so it was in olden days. With the expansion of the city in all directions, many new markets came up in Lucknow and each had its own distinct character
After Asaf-ud-Daula came to power in Lucknow the focus shifted from Akbari Darwaza to Gol Darwaza and Gol Darwaza became the most popular address for shopping and cultural activities. It became one area that was ‘go to’ for most needs, ‘Chikan’, ‘Zari’, ‘Itar’, ‘Huqqa’, ‘Topi’, kites, tobacco, flowers, silver et al. Asaf-ud-Daula too himself often frequented it for his love of kite-flying from the rooftop of this gate.
