Answer 2

A stepwell is a well in which you can reach to the water by climbing a series of steps. The construction of these wells is primarily utilitarian although sometimes they are used as temple tanks. They also occasionally feature as architectural embellishments. Stepwells are primarily found in the western part of the country.

Examples of some stepwells in the country are:  

*Rajon ki Baoli, New Delhi

*Dada Harir Stepwell, Ahmedabad

*Chand Baori, Abhaneri
