Very beautiful architecture. Step well means a well with steps to go down. very well carved, made in 1499 by queen Rudabai. In Adalaj village, approximately 17km from Ahmedabad, Gujarat. Earlier expert used to suggest without any technical help where water would be found underground and according to their suggestion, well were being dug. Adalaj Step well is 75.3mtrs long,... More

Earlier wells were not covered, which really beatified this amazing "Jaya" type step well. Circling ladders are also now not allowed to be experienced. I miss the circle ladders. It is still beautiful SandStone art. Winter is the best time to visit. Summer will give different pleasure due to its structure below ground level.

Its very picturesque. There are great jharokhas where almost everyone visiting does do a picture shoot. The temperature change in summer is worth the check - very cool as it is underground. If you like this step well - do visit patan step well as well to check out the carvings and compare. This one is great as an experience... More

You can visit Adalaj step well if you do not have much time. But if you do, go visit the one at Putan instead. Nevertheless, the sculptures on the walls are still visible but showing signs of detoriation.

A must visit place.it delights the photographer and movie makers withits intricate carving and huge steps in the well.

I love the architecture and the carving on the wall. One wonders what tool they must have to create such wonders.

This place has a lawn, it is lovely to spend some time with evening breeze while sitting there. I could have rated this place excellent but it is encroached by some filthy structure, I don't know why... More

Worth to visit this place. The step well is famous for stone carving and its history. The well is made for common public to have access to water. Purposely made by steps so that people can enter into the well and fetch the water. Making it more inside the earth make the water cooler. It is our of imagination for... More

Slightly out of the city, but worth the ride which is interesting. Set in a simple village setting and an absolutely amazing site. Lots of steps, but even impressive from the top.
