A significant structure in the Neemrana  village. Built in 1760s it is a 9 storey underground structure of majestic scale. It was built by the Rajas of Neemrana for famine relief. Traditionally baoris in Rajasthan have acted as sarai for the travellers. The Baori has been neglected for decades. Now under the Rural Tourism project of the Union Govt. this structure is being converted into a Crafts' Haat. Being only 125kms from Delhi and in close proximity to Neemrana Fort-Palace, the tourist traffic can be generated.
The project involves restoring many roofs, re-doing the brackets, flooring, plastering and ensuring security through metal gates and kathera's ( stone parapets). The steps about 200 in number will also be re-laid.
