    Janpath Market

    Lucknow is famous for the delicately embroidered muslin cloth known as chikan, which is worn by men and women. It is sold in the small but relatively traffic-free Janpath Market. Also in this market is the sweet-smelling Sugandhco, a century-old family business that sells attar - pure essence oil extracted from flowers by a traditional method.

    Ram Advani Bookshop

    A Lucknow institution, it’s worth visiting just to meet the knowledgable Mr Advani, who owns the place. Be aware, though, that he takes his siestas very seriously and is rarely seen between noon and 4pm.
