We  got  three  tickets  and  followed  our  tour  guide  into  the  labyrinth  of  Bhul

             Bhulaiya!  The tour guide said that the king and the queen played hide & seek in

             these labyrinths…seriously! Finally, we explored all nooks and corners for the three
             different  divisions  of  the  Bara  Imambara.  Then,  it  was  time  to  explore    some

             Lucknowi cuisines- Galawati Kebab, Biryani and the famous chaats of Lucknow! I

             was famished and we all gorged into the yummylicious street food and satisfied
             our gastronomic cravings.



             For the next 2 days, we saw some iconic places and truly felt the Nabawi lifestyle.
             We travelled by auto rickshaws just to get the thrill of the chilly wind piercing our

             skin and got chatty with the driver who gave us some interesting tit-bits of the city.


             The trip would have been incomplete without some shopping. The Hazrat Gunj

             market is lined with shops exhibiting the Chikankari work. I nagged my parents to

             buy me some super classy & gorgeous Kurta palazzo sets. I got some souvenirs for
             my friends to present as mementos and with a mind full of  memories we headed

             back home…Sweet Home!


             Overall Lucknow is an amazing place to visit! If not for anything else then surely

             for the Galawati Kebabs!
