Dwarka Baoli

द्वारका बावली Dvārkā Bāvlī

A stepwell discovered in 2011 under the foliage of thick vegetation and undergrowth and hidden behind a large group of tall trees. The Dwaraka Baoli finds a mention in the list of Maulvi Zafar Hasan of the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI). Maulvi Zafar Hasan documented the list of baolis in 1910 and listed over 100 baolis in and around Delhi. It was listed as the Loharheri Baoli or the Blacksmith’s stepwell. It is a 22-step stepwell or baoli, made of rubble masonry. The well, now covered by an iron grill, is situated on the southern end of the baoli. The side wall contains two sets of recessed arches. It is a small baoli with no ornamentation and not much of general tourist interest.
