Bawri or Baori were
constructed in olden times to ensure availability of water round the year. A
utility as well as an architectural marvel. These stepwells were not just a
utility but had social, cultural and religious importance. Social and religious
gatherings used to happen. This infinite mesh of stairs leads to a pond of
water, which also served a home to leisure activities. There is lot more about
this which can be searched on internet, explore the interesting facts.
Happy travelling☺
