A beautifully architectured step well. It is a hot tourist spot in the mornings. This place would seem familiar to you from Bollywood movies like PK, Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna and Sultan. People say once we start going down to the 108th step at dark, it starts to unfold its horrors.

What is the story behind it? The interesting part is there is no story behind it. There is no records of who built it or when it was even built. Although they predict that it must have been somewhere during 14th century. Maybe this counts as a mystery story itself.

There have been reports of some invisible force following each person who enters this place. And the faster we run away from it, the faster it catches up. There is said to be unnatural vibrations and the atmosphere getting a lot chiller as one climbs deeper down the stairs. They also say that the water in the well entices people to jump in and take their own lives. Some believe the thousands of bats and pigeons living here may also account to give out a spooky feeling. Well, we can only confirm when we visit it ourselves right?
