What to see: Rani ki vav | Queen’s Stepwell
Rani Ki vav was built about 985 years ago! The construction went on for 36 years (FYI: Taj Mahal was built in about 22 years). It is said that Rani Ki Vav was constructed in the memory of King Bhimdev by his wife Queen Udayamati
I can give you numbers from Wikipedia on how big Rani Ki Vav is but that’s not going to make you go woah! Even pictures won’t make you wonder about its size. The only way to be in its awe is by visiting Rani Ki Vav in real life.
From the ground level, this stepwell is roughly 90 feet deep! That’s about 7 stories in the reverse direction. It makes you wonder how they built it 985 years ago with few tools.
