An extensively constructed step well that was very much inspired from the styles of the Turkish bath, this place was named Champa Baoli because the aroma of the waters was believed to resemble that of the Champa flower.
This construction is the epitome of architecture during the Mughal times. The vaulted rooms known as Taikhanas were so well connected with the baoli that even during atrociously hot temperatures, these rooms were constantly kept cool. This place is a must visit for tourists because it is such architectural marvels that remind us of our exemplary historical roots.
As you walk in a mesh of ruins, you will spot a step well whose construction is quite influenced by the Turkish baths. The exemplary Mughal architecture built it in such a position that the taikhanas or the vaulted rooms in the Baoli stayed cool even when it was melting hot outside.
Hence, it not only served as a water tank but also as an air conditioner. The name of the Baoli was derived from the Champak flower as according to a folklore, the fragrance of the flower could be sensed in the water of the well.
