Agrasen Ki Baoli

This is an old stepping well, as it's called, where people used to get their water. It's in the middle of the city of Delhi and I just loved it because it's like you're traveling to a different time. Or it looks like a place where you'd do a treasure hunt movie. Also it's a peaceful place in the middle of the city. It was built in the 14th century. It is a tourist attraction obviously but I doubt anyone here has ever heard of it.

I have not heard about it, there's a massive Indiana Jones vibe to it, to me lol

[Lynx122]

Yes that's what I thought too :)

I think of Italy but with with an oriental twist, this is a really cool monument

In Spain/portugal there are a lot of old Roman buildings still preserved after nearly 1000 years

I’m Jason, your Travel Buddy ✈️ I’m a traveler who loves exploring hidden corners of the world in simple, real ways—walking streets, tasting local food, and finding places most guides barely mention.

Agrasen Ki Baoli is an awesome pick! A few of my favorite offbeat spots:

1. Loktak Lake, Manipur, India – A floating lake with circular “phumdis” (islands). Feels otherworldly, especially at sunrise.
2. Meteora Villages, Greece – Everyone sees the monasteries, but the tiny villages below, with local tavernas and quiet trails, feel like time froze.
3. Karakol, Kyrgyzstan – Base for trekking into wild valleys, plus quirky wooden Russian-style churches and a super local Sunday animal market.
4. Setenil de las Bodegas, Spain – A white village literally built into rock overhangs. Cafés under the cliff feel like a movie set.
5. Tsum Valley, Nepal – Remote Buddhist valley; prayer flags, stone houses, and no crowds. Like trekking into another century.

If you liked Agrasen Ki Baoli’s “lost-in-time” vibe, I can suggest more similar places in India or elsewhere 🌍

I never thought of Cincinnati as a travel spot but it is a great sports city and had many good restaurants. King-s Island amusement park is there and thy have a pretty nice zoo. The scenic Ohio river separates it from Kentucky. I worked there for a few weeks and really liked the place.

Identity to other countries but the best time I've ever had is when I was 12 years old we went to 17 states on the West Coast and I cannot believe how beautiful this Earth is I mean we went to the best the coolest places ever and if you have not traveled your state even or other states you are missing out

there's a piece of Mexico called "heaven" that has a very very "human print" on it and that, besides you literally walking into and disturbing it... it remains mostly and entirely natural and in all of it's glory as well...

If one likes nature, the Highlands area of western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee is a treat. Lots of waterfalls, hiking trails and wildlife.

There are some super places all over the world that always deliver. Pkelny Dol in Czechia is an old Ww2 V2 bomb underground cavern now turned into a biker bar

I will not tell.
"My" favourite places are special just because the average consumerist tourist does not turn up there.
Let's keeep it like that 😛
