Therefore, this huge pond (sarovar) was built by a local chief during late Mughal period for the use of general public. The ‘sarovar’ was constructed in rubble masonry with thick layer of lime plaster in the style of then prevailing Hindu architecture. Four staircases in each arm of the pond lead to the water storage tank. There were twelve kiosks (chhatri) on its boundary wall, one each at the corners and two each on the either sides of the staircases. At present only two out of twelve are surviving. An inscription affixed on the eastern wall records that an enclosed chamber for ladies-bath was added to this pond in 1929 AD. This ‘sarovar’ is still in public use.
The tomb, overlooking the madarasa and standing on an artificial terrace, is octagonal in shape with the entrance in the south. It is built of buff sandstone and is crowned with a pear-shaped dome of white marble standing on a high circular drum. The cenotaph of saint occupies the centre of the chamber, while his grave is located in the lower chamber, which conjoins the madarasa through a narrow gallery. The madrassa has nine-arched openings on each side of a central courtyard that has in the centre a stone masonty tank. John Dawkins, the then collector of Thaneshar, was instrumental in getting the tomb repaired in 1854 AD. The antiquities recovered from the excavations at Harsh ka Tilla and Bhagwanpura (both failing in the district of Kurukshetra) are displayed in two small museums of the madarasa building
This baoli is possibly the finest and the best such monument preserved in Haryana. According to an inscription on the well, it was built by Saidu Kala, a chobdar in the service of Emperor Shah Jahan, in 1658-59 AD. It is an elaborate structure of bricks and kankar blocks, has 101 steps extending in three stages, separated by landings and leading to the water reservoir. The circular well is located at the end of the stairs.
The Shahjahan ki baoli, also known as the Choron ki baoli, is located near Maham, Haryana, India. The building, built during Emperor Shah Jahan's reign, catches and stores rainwater for the nearby town of Maham. While the baoli is no longer in common usage, it has survived as a tourist attraction.
It is supposed that entire range of Tirthas assembles here on the day of Amavasya and as per the legends, if a man performs Shradhs at the time of solar eclipse and takes bath in this tank, he acquires the fruit of 1000 Ashwamedh sacrifices.
At the time of solar eclipse, pilgrims gather at this holy spot. Interestingly visitors to this place can know about their ancestors from the Purohits or locally known as Pandas, who for ages have been the record keepers of the pilgrims coming from various parts of the country.
Sikh Gurus too have visited this holy place from time to time.
The great explorer, Alexander Cunningham, conducted his exploration here at Sadhaura in 1879. He described about an old ruinous fort and got many coins from here. Even Mughal forces chased Banda Bahadur, who made his headquarters near Sadhaura. At present, 40-feet high mound survives narrating the past historic glory of Sadhura and its fort.
This is populary known as the fort or quila mound, most possibly represents the ruins of a fort and settlement which is ascribed to Prithviraj Chauhan. It was later destroyed by Muhammad of Ghor. Subsequently, some Muslim and Hindu shrines were built over the ruins of the fort from time to time. In 1982, 57 Jain bronze images were also discovered from the ruins of the fort.
