Travel to rani ki vav

Holiday packages to rani ki vav

Initially Rani-ki-Vav, on the banks of the Saraswati River, was built as a memorial to a king in the 11th century AD. This phenomenal memorial illustrates the technological, architectural and artistic mastery achieved at a stage when water was predominantly resourced from ground water streams and reservoirs.  Step wells have been constructed since the 3rd millennium BC and are a distinctive form of subterranean water resource and storage systems on the Indian subcontinent. In addition to this, Rani Ka Vav was a foremost centre for fraternizing among the locals as well. This structure is so magnanimous that a visitor appears to be a mere dot on the structure from far off. Attracting visitors from all around the world, this grand monument is a great example of manmade structures of ancient India. Through our rani ki vav tour packages from BestWay2India, we aim to give our customers a perfect tour of this historical site. Apart from working as the water storage system, this well is also known for its intricately carved five- hundred sculptures, which is iconic in its own way. Stepping down close to the water level, you will come across a carving of Sheshashayi-Vishnu, in which Vishnu reclines on the thousand-hooded serpent Shesha, where it is said that he rests in the infinity between ages.The well is further divided into seven levels of stairs with sculptural panels of high artistic quality, designed as an inverted temple highlighting the sanctity of water. Often referencing literary works, more than 500 principle sculptures and over a thousand minor ones showcase a religious, mythological and secular imagery. If you happen to be a history buff, this historical site is not worth missing.
