Rajon ki Baoli

Rajon ki Baoli

Dating back to 1506 AD, the Rajon ki Baoli is a hidden gem nestled amidst the wilderness of the Mehrauli Archaeological Park. Also known as the Rajon ki Bain, this historic baoli or stepwell was used in its time as a water reservoir and a retreat during summers.

Named after the masons (rajmistries) who worked there, its structure is built in four levels, each narrowing down as one approaches the well in the bottom. Every level of the baoll is home to colonnaded symmetric arcades with internal rooms that served as a retreat in the past. The presence of alcoves in the walls perfect for burning lamps hints that the baoli may have also served as a venue for social and cultural gatherings.
