Dada Harir Stepwell, Ahmedabad, India
Bai Harir ni Vav, with its architectural beauty, is a historical stepwell with rich cultural significance. Built in 1499 under the supervision of Sultan Begada’s harem, this architectural marvel offers a glimpse into the past with its intricate carvings and ancient inscriptions. Bai Harir ni Vav features five levels of carved stone columns leading down to two small wells, often dry in modern times. The structure remains cool even on the hottest days, providing a serene and somewhat eerie atmosphere.
