Agrasen Ki Baoli

The centuries old Agrasen Ki Baoli was made famous in 2015 by Aamir Khan and Anushka Sharma’s Bollywood flick PK. The baoli becomes a shelter for PK, the character played by Aamir Khan in the movie. Ever since, curious visitors have joined the regulars and global tourists to pay the monument a visit. PK was a good thing to have happened to Agrasen Ki Baoli. In its own way the movie created awareness about the baolis of Delhi, some of which badly need attention and others which are fast disappearing.Agrasen Ki Baoli, central Delhi’s oldest monument, remains one the best preserved baolis of Delhi. It is located in the narrow Hailey Lane, off Hailey Road, near Connaught Place, New Delhi. With Jantar Mantar less than 1.5 KM away and India Gate about 2 KM away, Agrasen Ki Baoli remains one of the most easily accessible baolis of Delhi. The monument remains open from 7 AM to 6 PM and the entry is free.
