Stepwell Tour in India
A stepwell, also known as a bawari, is a tunnel with stairs down to the bottom and rooms or other structures below where travellers might rest because the temperature inside is 5 to 10 degrees cooler than outside. Water is supplied to Stepwell for drinking, washing, bathing, and agriculture irrigation. Additionally, they functioned as cool havens for caravans, pilgrims, and other road users throughout the day or at night.
95 kilometres from Jaipur, in the village of Abhaneri, is where you'll find Chand Bawari. There are 3500 steps on the bawari. With 13 stories, the depth is over 100 feet. There is an ancient Harshad Mata shrine close to Chand Bawari.
The Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) has declared the historical step well Agrasen ki Baoli, which is 60 metres long and 15 metres wide, as a protected monument. It is located on Hailey Road in New Delhi, India. There aren't many Baolis like this one in Delhi; it has 108 steps. Three floors make up the elements of this antique step well that are visible. Arched niches line the walls of each level.
A room is located on the northern wall of the square-shaped stepwell known as Panna Meena ka Kund, which has adjacent stairs on all four sides. One of Jaipur's most beautifully restored stepwells, or Baori, is Panna Meena Ka Kund. This space is thought to have been used for religious rituals before weddings or during well-known festival times.
A famous stepwell known as Raniji ki Baori, sometimes known as "Queen's stepwell," is located near Bundi town in the Indian state of Rajasthan. It was constructed in 1699 by Rani Nathavati Ji, the younger daughter of Bundi's king Rao Raja Anirudh Singh.
