Chand Baori ~ India's Ancient Amazing Step Well

A look at the amazing Chand Baori (Chand Bawri) Step Well in Abhaneri, near Jaipur, Rajasthan.  One of many ancient step wells in the region, Chand Baori is maybe the largest and best preserved.  Built for when water was scarce.
 Some 3,500 Escher-esqe terraced steps march down the other three sides 13 stories to a depth of 100 feet. The construction dates to the 10th century, and is dedicated to Harshat Mata, goddess of joy and happiness.
