@dsourceindia This video is about an old stepwell which is located in Adalej, Gujarat. It is multi-storied and has architectural significance. Stepwells are the best examples of water storage and irrigation tanks developed in India to deal with seasonal fluctuations in water availability. These well-built, sturdy structures had social, cultural, and religious significance. Along with providing water, step-wells served a purpose of leisure. This was because the base of the well provided relief from the daytime heat.
