How pretty is this place? We were awestruck by the architecture and the massiveness of this baori. Though this is quite a distance from Jaipur or the main city, but I thought it was worth the visit. Right next to it is a Mata temple, which is another beautiful ruin. You can easily spend about an hour and a half at this place, lots of photo opportunities, and will transport you to the old world charm. It is a piece of history which should be maintained a bit more, but awesome! Definite visit.…

Visiting Abhaneri's Chand Baori was on my list for almost 6 years. Though I passed it a few times on trip to Jaipur from Alwar never took the turn. So this time I planned a cycle trip from Alwar to Abhaneri and boy it was worth every bit of pain I took to ride in 2° cold. The Baori itself was made in 8th century and is the older Baori in the world. It has 13 levels and 350 steps.. While tourists are no longer allowed to go on steps, it is a delight to see this place.

Overall a must visit if you are visiting Sariska or Jaipur..…

Chand Baori at Abhaneri (about an hour from Sariska Tiger Reserve) is one of the rare finds where you are glad you went. Its a true piece of history thats frequented by very few tourists / travelers. If you are doing a tour to nearby places such as Sariska tiger reserve / Alwar / Bhangarh fort, do visit here. There is also a 8th century temple just beside the Chand Baori complex, thats also a site worth visiting. P.S. If you are visiting Abhaneri, do visit the Abhaneri Arts and Crafts place a few hundred metres away where you get traditional handloom products.…
