Communal wells
Thursday, August 23, 2012
(VOV) - Only a few wells are seen in rural villages but they remain unique in terms of cultural value like banyan trees and communal yards.
They have been built with bricks or stone either round or square or rectangle in all shapes and sizes.
A village well not only provides water for daily use but is also a meeting place for lovers.
See the images of some ancient wells.
