Agrasen ki Baoli

Agrasen ki Baoli is a protected monument as designated by Archeological Survey of India .
It is a 60 meter long and 15 meter wide step well on Atul Grove Road (earlier called Hailey Road) near Connaught Place.

There are no known historical records to prove who built Agrasen ki Baoli. It is believed that it was originally built by the legendary king Agrasen and was rebuilt in the 14th century by Agrawal community which traces its origin to Maharaja Agrasen.
