- Located in the eastern part of the province of Rajasthan, it was built by King Chanda somewhere in the 9th century.
- The Chand Baori is not an easy landmark to find; thus, it is one of India's hidden secrets! Stepwells, also called Baori, are unique to this nation. The wells have steps built into the sides that lead down to the water.
- After that, head to Fatehpur Sikri.
- Fatehpur Sikri, a testament to the grandeur of the Mughal Empire, showcases a unique blend of Timurid forms and styles. The city, predominantly crafted from red sandstone, is a massive architectural marvel.
