Hey guys, today we are going to look at a very mysterious structure in a small town called Adalaj.
In the middle of the roads, houses, and trees, what is that strange Lingam shaped structure? Is this is a secret government organization or an underground bunker? No. This is a historic structure known as the Adalaj Ni Vav. Almost perfectly aligned along the North โ South axis, its design is totally unique. It does not have an entrance on the North side at all, and no entryways in the center of the structure as well. But on this side, it has 3 entrances with steps, in three directions, right to next to one another. Why was such a unique architecture built many centuries ago? What are these three octagonal structures on top?
Now, letโs get on the ground and try to get a closer view. This is a very surprising structure, because nothing is visible from the ground level. Usually, I show you structures starting from ground level and going up. In this one, we start from the ground level and we are going to go down. Yes, this is an underground structure, but you know how many levels, how many floors go underground? It goes five stories below, it has 5 different levels. What do experts say about this structure? Experts call this the Adalaj Step well, and It was designed with 2 separate wells to provide water to the public. A giant structure with so many levels and carvings just to provide water? But there is an even more weird claim. Wikipedia calls this an Indo โ Islamic structure meaning that the structure was built by both Hindus and Muslims? How is this possible?
We have come more than 75 feet deep and we have reached the bottom most level of this structure, and you can see this circular well. It looks remarkably simple, seems to be about 12 feet in diameter, and just 30 feet deep. There are steps radiating on all four sides to help people access water from all sides. Is this well, really the primary purpose of building this vast 5 storied underground structure?
As you can see, there seems to be nothing else here, so letโs go back up and look at the other details. No. Wait, what about the second well, I told you there are 2 wells here, right? Where is the second well? Let us go past this first well, and see if we can find it. After we go past the first well, there is another structure. And you can see a narrow entrance here, it is just 2 feet wide. It is so narrow that only one person can go through. And here, we can see the secret, second well. It is smaller than the first well, and it is also less deep. If you look carefully into the well, you can see the bottom, it is probably less than 15 feet deep. Why would anyone build 2 separate wells right next to one another? I mean they are for the same purpose, to drink water, right? Today, imagine you are building a house, would you dig 2 separate wells, or put 2 bore wells, right next to each other? This would be like putting 2 separate entrances in front of your house, nobody does it, because there should be no use for this. But the original builders must have a had a valid purpose for this, and we cannot understand what it is. Why is this well hidden from public view?
And see here, very fascinating carving - 2 kissing fish. What do they mean? I have repeatedly shown you carvings like this, they indicate the presence of ground water underneath, and here we see it directly in the walls of the well. And look at the walls, you can see the shallow rectangular chambers - 3 chambers specifically. Inside these chambers, you can find carvings of Hindu Gods. And each chamber would be visible from one floor. Why did they put these carvings and chambers in this wall? What is the real reason for building such a fantastic, 5 storied structure? As we come out of the second well, you see.. this area between these 2 wells is completely covered. Look carefully, do you see anything strange?
