As you head towards Parivartan Chowk from Lucknow University, via Hanuman Setu bridge, you will spot a quaint store next to the Acharya Narendra Dev Gate. Named Kalika Art & Crafts, this antique store will transport you back in time in a jiffy!

From antique products sitting next to one another to paintings hanging on the walls, every offering here is sure to take you back a few decades and tell a story.

Reprints of historic paintings, antique lamps & more

Soon as you lay your eyes at this nearly 40-year-old shop, an old-timey charm will pull you in. As you step in, you'll find decades-old Gramophone record players, antique telephones, Nawabi hookah, Awadhi paintings, old-style locks, pocket watches, antique lamps, and a lot more.

For collectors, this antique shop in Lucknow is an absolute must-visit. And even if you are not one, a mere visual tour of this store is akin to a dreamy trip down history lane.

The store boasts elegant reprints of paintings of Nawabs like Asaf-ud-Daulah and his court, along with century-old paintings of historical Lucknow monuments like the Bada Imambara and Rumi Darwaza.

Furthermore, there's an entire set of Gramophone record players, with some dating back to the early 20th century. We also found an antique telephone at the store, still in perfect condition, and ready to amp up any living room wall with its historic charm.
