What it is
The riverfront is a landscaped promenade running along the Gomti, with paved walkways, lawns and open viewing areas facing the water. It is designed for walking rather than for any single attraction.
Evenings are when it comes alive, with families and walkers along the length of it and the city lights across the water.
When to go
Late afternoon into evening is the obvious window, particularly in the cooler months. Weekends are considerably busier than weekdays.
Facilities, lighting and access along different stretches vary, and some sections are better maintained than others.
