Agrasen ki Baoli I like that you can see a stark concrete urban skyline in the background, juxtapose to the lime and stone colossal structure. Also known as Ugrasen ki Baoli, it's a 60-meter long and 15-meter wide historical step well on Hailey Road near Connaught Place, in New Delhi, India. Although there are no known historical records to prove who built Agrasen ki Baoli, it is believed that it was originally built by the legendary king Agrasen, and rebuilt in the 14th century by the Agrawal community which traces its origin to Maharaja Agrasen. #Historic #Heritage #Unknown #StepWell #Beaut #Structures #LimeAndStone #Arched #Influenced #NewDelhi #DelhiJournal #DelhiDiaries #India #Capital #IncredibleIndia #Wanderer #Wanderlust #Travel #Traveler #TravelLog #Traveller #Travelogue #TravelDiaries (at Agrasen Ki Baoli)
