Long way to go for a drink of water...

The picture below is of a 9th century step-well in India.
It's name, Chand Baori.

With 3500 steps, if you weren't thirsty when you started your descent, you sure will be when you get to the water.

I guess this is what you get when you let MC ESCHER design your water well.

All kidding aside, Chand Baori is an amazing piece of architecture.

Cheers.
