इमारत/संरचना/स्थल का विवरण |
The baoli is enclosed within a wall, one end of which has deep arched niches. The rectangular site consists of an octagonal pond which leads its water via a narrow rill towards a square pond where the water stays. The water to these ponds seems to be fed by an outer water source like a stream etc. The entire complex has a unique setting and is simple yet appealing in its layout. |
