In Lucknow this summer? Lucky you! Whether you are a local catching a breather, a student back for the holidays, or a curious tourist soaking up the Nawabi vibe, this city trail is your ticket to making the most of the season.
Start your day by getting lost inside Bara Imambara. Pause for that mandatory selfie at the majestic Rumi Darwaza before diving into the busy lanes of Chowk and Aminabad. This is where your hunt for chikankari and tiny bottles of ittar comes to an end. Don’t forget to swing by the Residency ruins for a bit of history, and finish the evening with a lazy stroll through Janeshwar Mishra Park as the sun goes down.
And of course, there is ganjing — Lucknow’s personal pastime of strolling and street-shopping. Right in the middle of it all sits Hazratganj SOCIAL, the perfect pit stop to unwind and refuel.
Hazratganj SOCIAL! Lucknow’s soul with a side of sass
Hazratganj SOCIAL is where Lucknow’s old-school charm gets an upgrade. Imagine Lakhori brick walls, Awadhi arches, a red-carpet rooftop, and SOCIAL’s trademark coolness. The rooftop views of Hazratganj, bathed in warm lighting, are perfect for your Instagram grid and let’s be honest, isn’t that the ideal way to wrap up your city trail?!
Speaking of rooftops, SOCIAL Chhatt is the real scene-stealer. With sweeping views of GPO and the hum of Hazratganj below, it’s the place to relax after a day of exploring, chilled drink in hand, of course.
And while you are there, tuck into the Local Heroes menu! A spin on Lucknow’s culinary favourites, featuring everything from Chapli Kebabs to Croissant Ka Meetha that sweetly seals the deal.
