One of Delhi's most atmospheric and photogenic sites, Agrasen ki Baoli is a 60-step ancient stepwell dating to the 14th century, attributed to the legendary king Agrasen. Hidden in a narrow lane off busy Hailey Road in Connaught Place, this 60-meter-long, 15-meter-wide structure descends to a water level flanked by rows of arched niches. It featured in the Bollywood film PK and is a favorite of Delhi's photographers.
