00:00This well, which is located in the dense forest of Melghat, sometimes appears to be an important
00:07center of military protection or water management.
00:11This well, which is located on the old route from Achalpur to Gavilgad and Narnala, was
00:18built on wood.
00:19This well, which is located on the old route from Achalpur to Gavilgad and Narnala, was

00:29This well, which is located on the old route from Achalpur to Gavilgad and Narnala, was
00:35built on wood.
00:38This well, which is located on the old route from Achalpur to Gavilgad and Narnala, was
00:44built on wood.
00:46This well is on the main road of Achalpur to Gavizgarh
00:50This well has been buried in the ground for a long time
00:54A few years ago, we came here to search for a Satishila
00:59We saw this well and started studying it
01:04The structure of this well is similar to that of Mandaleshwara in Achalpur
01:10This well is around 500-600 years old
01:14The construction of this well is very good
01:16There are two main ways to come here
01:18One way is to get into the water
01:20The other way is to stay here
01:22There is a temple here
01:24To make the well visible from all sides,
01:26they have made a stone structure at the bottom
01:28The whole structure is visible only after adding water in the summer
01:30In the season of Kaal, all the stones are falling
01:32Maybe this is our last video
01:34that you can see this well
01:36It is a very beautiful and auspicious well
01:38When Gavizgarh Fort was built,
01:40this well must have been built at the same time
01:42as this well was built
01:44This is an initial guess
01:46The village in Chikhaldara Taluk
01:48has a rich history
01:50In this area, there are some forts
01:52around Achalpur
01:54There is a Gavilgarh near Achalpur
01:56There is a Narnal Adhar
01:58which is in Akot Taluk
02:00But these two forts
02:02During the time of Feroz Shah Bahmani
02:04His brother Ahmad Shah Bahmani
02:06In 1824-1825
02:09This well was built in 1824-1825
02:11We have to understand
02:13what is written on it
02:15During that time
02:17The Rajputs who were here
02:19in the surrounding area
02:21due to lack of water
02:23some good construction works
02:25have been done here
02:27This construction work
02:29has been influenced by
02:31Iranian, Hindu and Muslim culture
02:33The people of Iran
02:35after the partition of Bahmani Empire
02:37came to the Nizam Shah of Ahmednagar
02:39because this state was Shia
02:41And Shia religion was important
02:43in this country
02:45The artists of Shia religion
02:47came here
02:49and built these wells
02:51for the local people
02:53This well
02:55is circular
02:57and it is
02:59standing on wood
03:01The Taj Mahal of Agra
03:03is standing on the wood
03:05At that time, the Mughal Emperor
03:07Shah Jahan built this well
03:09His engineer was Kasim Khan
03:11The Taj Mahal is standing on wood
03:13so it is strong
03:15This construction work
03:17was going on for 400-450 years
03:19According to Kasim Khan
03:21this construction work
03:23will be going on for 500 years
03:25There is a big difference
03:27between Taj Mahal and well
03:29The well standing on wood
03:31is a good example
03:33The well is circular
03:35And it is standing on wood
03:37and no one knows
03:39where it is standing
03:41We don't know
03:43where it is standing
03:45and why it is standing
03:47But now
03:49due to boredom
03:51we don't get water
03:53to drink
03:55In summertime, the water is not available
03:57Even though the well
03:59was standing on wood
04:01This well is an important witness to the history of this region.
