Dada Harir Ni Vav, Ahmedabad
'Vav' in gujrati means 'StepWell'. In search of some historic location in the city of Ahmedabad, I decided to start with this Baoli (StepWell) and it took me quite sometime on a Sunday afternoon to reach at this beautiful serene location. And not to mention, this 15th century structure was just stunning.
