Aminabad is always swarming with people but it is especially crowded on thursdays. You find everything there- watches to traditional Indian clothes; books to tea shops; shoes to jewelry. If you enjoy rickshaw rides and a crowded shopping atmosphere, you would enjoy Aminabad. More

Kababs are great. Awesome Chicken Kali mirch. Ambience is not so good. Go for AC room. Dont forget to try cold drinks, paratha and Gulawati kaba. More

The quintessential shopper's paradise... this is where you go to buy anything and everything. Definitely not for the mall hopping dainty souls. Leave the car, hop onto a rickshaw and be prepared to jostle for space with rickshaws, two wheelers and the odd cow. Good place to pick up Chikan at bargain prices. Do not forget to try the Prakash... More

I recently went to Lucknow on a business trip. My meetings got over by 6 PM & I had some time to kill. My wife had asked me to look for Chikan garments (ladies suits) if I could. I knew some places as I studied at Lucknow & had spent 2 years there. I asked driver to take me to... More

Chawk and Aminabad have been,and still are the main shopping area of Lucknow city. Chawk is little open type and Aminabad is very very crowdy. Moving with a vehicle is almost impossible in evening hours. Big, medium, small to very small shops. Yawning there may prove a mistake as they may open a shop in your mouth...ha ha. The shops...
