The edge of the well is a masonry structure with elaborate carvings and even magnificent. People can go down the steps along the edge of the well to the bottom of the well to get water. In the past, it was an important facility for people to store and use water, and sometimes used as a place for religious ceremonies. Although it has lost its use value now, its historical value has attracted attention. The movie "Marigold Hotel" was also shot here because of its unique scenery. Today, the mottled walls, vertical and horizontal stairs, and calm pools remind people of the scenes in the movie.

Panna Meena Ka Kund, Jaipur: A Hidden Gem of Stepwells
#favouriteitinerary
Panna Meena Ka Kund is a historic stepwell located in the heart of Jaipur, near the Amer Fort. Built during the 16th century, this stepwell is an architectural masterpiece and a perfect example of Rajasthan’s unique water management system. It is said to have been constructed by the Meena community, who were known for their engineering skills.
The stepwell features a symmetrical layout with a series of steps leading down to the water level. It has four sides with stairs that connect to each other, forming a geometrically pleasing pattern. The well itself was once a vital water source for the people of the area, especially during the dry season, and is designed to maintain the flow of water even during periods of scarcity.
The Kund’s striking visual symmetry, with its multiple levels of stairs and serene environment, makes it an ideal spot for photography. Though not as famous as other landmarks in Jaipur, Panna Meena Ka Kund is a quiet and peaceful place to visit, offering a glimpse into the city’s ancient water management systems and architectural beauty.
It’s a great stop for anyone visiting Amer Fort, as it is located just a short distance away.

Round Frame @ Jaipur
The Round Frame is a small yet intriguing temple situated next to the famous Panna Meena ka Kund in Jaipur, Rajasthan. This lesser-known architectural gem often goes unnoticed by visitors who are drawn to the grandeur of the stepwell, but it holds its own charm and historical significance.
The temple is believed to be a part of the ancient structures surrounding the Amer Fort area. Unlike the massive and intricately designed temples of Jaipur, this one is compact and features a distinct circular design, which is uncommon in Rajasthani temple architecture. The round frame of its entrance or windows, possibly from where it gets its name, adds to its uniqueness.
Many travelers and photographers love this spot due to its peaceful ambiance and architectural simplicity. The temple, built with traditional stone and adorned with minimal carvings, stands as a quiet witness to the rich history of Amer. The location next to Panna Meena ka Kund provides a scenic backdrop, making it a perfect place to pause and soak in the old-world charm of Jaipur.
Though not much detailed historical information is available about this temple, locals regard it as a sacred place. Visitors who come to explore Panna Meena ka Kund often stop by, admiring the temple’s design and capturing stunning photographs. The round window or doorway gives a perfect frame for artistic pictures, making it a favorite among photography enthusiasts.
If you plan to visit Panna Meena ka Kund, taking a few moments to explore this hidden temple will add depth to your experience. It’s a reminder of Jaipur’s lesser-known treasures, waiting to be discovered.

[Jaipur] Panna Meena ka Kund step well
Panna Meena ka Kund, a step well in Jaipur, and the Hindu temple next to it 🛕
Speaking of step wells, Chand Baori is famous, but it's quite far away 🥲
So I went to Panna Meena ka Kund, which I could stop by on my way to Amber Fort ♪
It's small, but I was very satisfied 😚
There is no admission fee here 🍀
Note that you used to be able to enter the steps, but now they are prohibited ⚠️
If someone tries to enter, they will blow a whistle to warn you.
Please be careful 🖕

The beautiful 16th-century stepwell lies in the shadow of a famous fortress. Panna Meena ka Kund is a square-shaped stepwell, with adjoining stairs on all four sides and a room on the northern wall. It’s believed this room was used for religious ceremonies before weddings or on popular festival dates.#travel #trip #India #Jaipur

There is a very old water storage building in India - a ladder well. From the top down, the well is like an inverted pyramid, and it is very symmetrical, magnificent, and the bottom is filled with dark green fresh water.
The climate in India is hot and many ladder wells have been built to ensure a temperature source of water during the dry season. It can not only meet the demand of water supply, but also play a role in summer heat.
Now India has many wells, large and small. The largest and deepest well is the Moon Well, a village between Agra and Jaipur. The well in the picture is located in the old town of Jodhpur.
Some of today's wells are still playing its usefulness, and some are already a paradise for everyone to swim and play.
