About
A step-well built by Ugrasen, a semi-legendary Agrawal king, though the surviving structure is generally dated to the 14th century Tughlaq period. Its 108 stone steps descend to what was once a deep water tank, flanked by symmetrical walls that create a striking optical corridor. The baoli has become a well-known filming location and Instagram landmark near Connaught Place in central Delhi. It is protected by the Archaeological Survey of India and open to the public daily, free of charge.
