Agrasen Ki Baoli

 

Agrasen Ki Baoli


Agrasen Ki Baoli is a 60-meter long and 15-meter wide historical step well in New Delhi, India.


Located on Hailey Road, near Connaught Place, Jantar Mantar, it was designated a protected monument by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act of 1958.

Although there are no known historical records to prove who built the stepwell, it is believed that it was originally built by the legendary king Agrasen, and the present architecture hints at it being rebuilt in the 14th century during the Tughlag or Lodi period of the Delhi Sultanate. The Baoli is open daily from 9 AM to 5:30 PM.

This Baoli, with 108 steps, is among a few of its kind in Delhi. Three levels of the historic stepwell are visible. Each level is lined with arched niches on both sides. From an architectural perspective, this step well was probably rebuilt during the Tughlaq or Lodi period and is flanked by a small three-sided mosque towards the west.

In popular culture

The location has been used to shoot scenes from various Bollywood films such as the blockbuster film PK


 starring Aamir Khan and Sultan 
starring Salman Khan. It was also featured in the 2017 Sridevi thriller Mom. In 2012, a photo-shoot of Formula One models also took place here. The step well also appeared on the second episode of The Amazing Race Australia 2 in 2012.
 




There are also urban legends of the step-well being haunted.
