Overview
Guru Ka Tal is a large 17th-century stepwell (baoli) built during Shah Jahan's reign, also revered as a Sikh pilgrimage site said to have been visited by Guru Nanak, founder of Sikhism. A gurdwara stands beside the well, and its red sandstone steps and arches are a fine example of Mughal water architecture. More popular with local pilgrims than tourists. Free entry.
