It is the most spectacular of the more than 60 stepwells in Bundi, 46 meters deep, hundreds of years old and well-preserved. There are many exquisite reliefs in the whole building, most of which are statues of the great Hindu god Vishnu. Stepwells are water intake devices developed by locals in the water-scarce Rajasthan region of India.
Most of them are rectangular pools dug deep from the ground, which are used to store domestic groundwater, and are called "step wells" because they are used to go down to the water's edge to take water on the wall of the well. Although the Queen's Terrace in Bundy is famous, it was abandoned due to a long period of drought and a drop in water levels, which made the stored water no longer functional.
In addition to the function of taking water, the reason for the reputation of this well is that its historical value is far greater than the value of its basic function. After entering the stepwell building, the first thing you see is the four tall quadrangular columns.
There are beautiful reliefs on the foot of the column, and there are elephants and dragon-like hollow carvings on the capital, which makes the appearance index of the queen's step well jump a lot.

After arriving in Udaipur in the morning, you will spend the day at the hotel's rooftop restaurant, and then take the train to the next stop, Khajuraho, at 10 p.m.
Bundy is a small city, and the train station is naturally very small, and there are not many people waiting in the station, seven or eight people sleeping on the ground in the station hall wrapped in blankets. Thankfully, the train was only 20 minutes late, and the trains ahead, Xue Luo and Liu Jingshu were all scared by the long delay.
In the middle of the night, I boarded the third-class air-conditioned sleeper car of Xueluo and Liu Jingshu, got on the train and slept until the final station, Udaipur. After a day trip to Udaipur Bundi, return to Udaipur again just for the evening train to Khajuraho. Udaipur has a direct train to Khajuraho, while Bundi does not.
On the way, I didn't go back to Udaipur railway station late. It's dawn. The photo at the top of the Udaipur railway station is the third-class air-conditioned sleeper car in which Xueluo and Liu Jingshu are riding, and the photo below is the platform of the Udaipur railway station.
The photo above shows the main building of the Udaipur railway station, and the red wall on the right side is full of reliefs rich in local folk customs. The photo below shows a bronze statue hanging on the wall inside the station hall depicting a battle between the army of Udaipur and the army of Jaipur in 1576.
After returning to Udaipur early in the morning, there was still a whole day to go to one or two more attractions here, and the original plan was to go to the Monsoon Palace to watch the sunset, but because Bendi was tired yesterday and did not sleep peacefully for two consecutive days, therefore, everyone was too lazy to go out, so they chose to rest in the hotel's rooftop restaurant, and the room had been withdrawn.
Because the train left tonight, I didn't renew the room during the day, and the three meals were also solved here. For dinner, Xueluo told the kitchen to prepare some ingredients, and Xueluo and Liu Jingshu cooked by themselves, and the meal fee was paid. Xueluo made a pot of cucumber, tomato and egg drop soup, without oil, directly boiled a pot of boiling water, then put in eggs, cucumbers and tomatoes, add salt, and remove from the pot.
The soup is very clear, but the Indian chef was surprised by the vegetable and egg soup that did not put any oil at all, scooped a spoonful and tasted it and poured it immediately. Sitting in the open-air restaurant on the roof of the hotel, the Kairun Hotel saw the familiar figure again.
