Chand Baori Step Well/Harshad Mata Tmpl

This step well was an incredible visual experience. It has been dated to the 8-9 century AD. It’s about 100 feet down to the water, which is collected rainwater. The well was used for drinking water and religious/ceremonial activities. I couldn’t get enough of the pattern of the steps!

There were big chunks of carved sandstone around the well and the neighboring temple. Apparently they used to be parts of the structures but but they were damaged by the Mughals.もっと詳しく
