Baoli
Sahib

Baoli
Sahib
at Qila
Anandgarh, Anandpur
sahib
Baoli is
a Punjabi word
which
refers
to
an
open
well.
One
will
find
steps
leading
down
to
the
water
level.
Many
such
sacred
wells
were
constructed
during
the
times
of
the
Gurus
and
are
still
a
feature
at
many
historic Gurdwaras.
The
most
popular
baoli
Sahib
is
found
at Govindwal at
the
site
built
by Guru
Amar
Das,
the
third
Sikh
guru.
This
has
84
steps
denoting
the
84
lakh
(which
is
written
as
84,00,000
or
8.4
million)
species
of
life
forms
on
Earth.
At
this
Baoli
a
grand
staircase
leads
from
ground
level
down
to
the
water.
This
Baoli
Sahib
was
contructed
after
Sikhs
were
prevented
from
fetching
water
from
a
local
source.
The
digging
started
in
1556
and
completed
in
1559.
