Adalaj Stepwell In Ahmedabad
When you are in Admedabad, one definitely has to visit the Adalaj stepwell. It is one of the most famous step wells in Admedabad, and one that has magnificent architectural designs and one so rich in heritage and history.
You must be wondering what is a step well? In the past, Step wells are used to be a collection site for rain water and these places often provided a resting area for traders and pilgrims on their journey, passing these stepwells. Adalaj is a 5 storey high step well and be marveled with its beauty. Believe it or not, the architectural design of Adalaj stepwell is designed in a way where the inner temperature is always cooler than the outside. This makes the place even more amazing.
The Adalaj stepwell is opened everyday. It's truly an awesome place to visit in Ahmedabad. Wish I can fly there to visit this beauty again!

📍The Adalaj Stepwell
The stepwell was built by Mahmud Begada in 1411, to commemorate Queen Rudabai, wife of Veersinh, the Vaghela chieftain. It served both a utilitarian and spiritual purpose for the people around. A number of people from villages around once filled water from this stepwell.
Great place to see heritage of architecture in Gujarat. Detailings are so amazing. Must visit site. It's deep into the ground, when you entering into the ground, you will start slowly unveiling the layers below the ground and it leads towards the main water body. Spectacular..!
