Photo of Dada Hari step well staircase which is a heritage structure located at Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. The stepwell was built in 1485 by Muslim king Sultan Bai Harir. A Sanskrit inscription at Dada Hari ni Vav says that the seven-storey step-well was built in 1500 AD. It was during the reign of Mahmud Shah that Bai Harir Sultani, locally known as Dada Hari, built the step-well. Sultani was the superintendent of the royal harem. The building, with beautiful carvings all over, cost 3,29,000 Mahmudis (approx $2500) at that time. The ornate step-well has spiral staircases pieced into the sidewall of the well shaft and descending to the different platform levels. This Photo is of internal carving on wall.
