The Chand Baori step well is considered a real architectural marvel that attracts the attention of not only numerous tourists, but also historians. This is one of the greatest structures, striking in its size and shape, because in our understanding a well is a narrow well in the ground, into which a bucket is lowered on a chain, but wells in India are completely different. Only here magnificent step wells were created, which were an architectural masterpiece, and the Chand Baori well, perhaps the largest and most beautiful of all, is a must see!.

The Chand Baori well near the temple of the Goddess of Fortune in the town of Abaneri near Jaipur is an example of structures that are found only in India. According to various sources, its depth is from 19 to 30 meters, probably in the first case they indicate the depth to the surface of the water, in the second - to the bottom of the well. This is one of the deepest wells of this type. It was built much more than a millennium ago, carefully equipped - sculptures of the 7th century, left over from the devastating invasions of subsequent years, are laid out around.
