Agrasen ki Baoli, also known as Ugrasen ki Baoli, is a historical stepwell located in the heart of New Delhi, India, on Hailey Road near Connaught Place. This ancient water reservoir, believed to have been built by the legendary king Agrasen and later rebuilt during the Tughlaq dynasty, is an architectural marvel that showcases a blend of Indian and Islamic styles.The baoli is 60 meters long and 15 meters wide, with a series of 103 steps made of red sandstone leading down to the water.

Today, Agrasen ki Baoli stands as a protected monument under the Archaeological Survey of India and attracts visitors for its historical significance, unique architecture, and the serene yet slightly eerie ambiance. Its central location makes it a popular spot for tourists, history enthusiasts, and even photographers looking to capture the essence of Delhi's rich heritage.
