Shah Quit`s Baoli

Shah Quit`s Baoli is a deep weel that can be found inside the Fatehpur Siri in Agra.

A deep well, known as Shah Quit`s Baoli, octagonal, with three galleried storeys and two windlasses lies further south. Shah Quli (1601) is popularly believed to have built this step-well. Water was raised from the baoli in five stages by the method used in the northern waterworks. Beyond Daftar Khana, however, the conduits have been obliterated. A branch may have led to the principal court baths.
