Dwarka Baoli

It was constructed for the residents of Loharehri village by the Sultans of the Lodi Dynasty in the early 16th century.

It was hidden by a large group of Peepal trees and covered by a thick undergrowth which seems to have aided in its relative obscurity.

[3] Baoli or bawdi, also referred to as baori or bauri, is a Hindi word (from Sanskrit wapi[4][5] or vapi, vapika).

The structure shows typical Lodi era architecture with prominent arches along the steps and a well at the end of the baoli.

The baoli seems to have disappeared from the pages of history and bears no mention in the ASI or INTACH heritage list.

Dwarka Baoli is a site under restoration by INTACH Delhi Chapter, August 2014
