Stepwell. Architetture per l'acqua nel nord Gujarat tra conservazione e recupero

Rani-ki-Vav, along with Adalaj ni vav and Asharwa Bai Harir vav, represents a unique underground architectural marvel in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, showcasing the intricate relationship between water infrastructure and design. These stepwells serve as both historical monuments and dynamic spaces for social integration or worship, reflecting their cultural significance. The study highlights the tension between conservation efforts to preserve these structures and the potential for their destruction, emphasizing the need for balanced approaches to safeguard their heritage value while exploring their relevance in contemporary contexts.
