Ambapur Stepwell, 15th-century stepwell in Gandhinagar district, India.

The five-story deep Ambapur Stepwell displays ornate pillars and detailed stone carvings throughout its multiple levels and entrance stairs.

Built during the 1400s, this water reservoir exemplifies the engineering methods used to provide water access in Gujarat's semi-arid climate.

The structure incorporates both Hindu and Islamic architectural elements in its stone carvings, representing the artistic traditions of medieval Gujarat.

Located 18 kilometers from Ahmedabad, the stepwell remains open to visitors daily from 7 AM to 6 PM throughout the year.

Three separate entrance staircases merge at the first level, creating an unusual architectural configuration not found in other regional stepwells.
