और सब अलग-अलग ऐसे sandwich किये हुए हैं, so this is three levels interlocking into two levels, into four levels here, so it's a very interesting composition.

कहाँ पर है?

Kemp's Corner, it's something unique.

Cost ज़्यादा लगी थी for that time, क्योंकि पूरी building RCC में है.

All walls are also RC.

So cost ज्यादा लगी थी but unique.

One has to be a traditional old building which is चानबावरी.

कहाँ पर है ये?

वो है राजसान में, it is a step well.

It's a beautiful, stunning step well.

मतलब आज भी it looks amazing and the beauty is the concept.

लोग उस टाइम, राजसान में तो पानी नहीं होता न, राजसान, गुजरात is the place where step wells are made.

तो क्योंकि पानी होता नहीं है, these people, the old, these are centuries ago, ये तो कुछ 14, 15 centuries में बना है, they cut, cut, cut, cut, cut into the earth, and it's gone like 12 floors down like this, so that the water which stays inside, remains, it doesn't evaporate,

Because closed है ना, so it doesn't evaporate as easily as water on the surface.

Got it.

Number one.

So water stays there.

अच्छा water के evaporation में, because these are hot places राजसान तो बहुत गर्मी होती है, 40 degree, 50 degree.

तो लोग उसमें जाके बेटते थे, गाउंवाले सब, to feel cool.

और फिर it became a place की हाँ बस community center मतलब community place हो गया न people will go in the evening ठंडा है bed 2 hours children will play women will sit and talk whatever and it's still there it's beautiful और कितने सालों पुरानी building होगी ये तो मतलब exactly we'll have to google it but I think 15-16th century till now and they have been able to now it's of course a heritage site तो वो तो भी preserved हो गया तो अब कुछ नहीं होना है
