Well and
Tanks
The importance of a water source in a water scarce area
like Rajasthan can be hardly exaggerated. So it is
hardly surprising that wells and tanks or 'sagar'
(lakes) were decorated ornamentally with beautiful
edifices. Water table was found very low and step wells
(locally known as 'baodi') leading to the water table
are beautiful examples of architecture. Some excellent
pavilion can be seen on the banks of lakes also. |
