The Roho stepwell and shrines were rebuilt from white marble ruins in the 16th century, under sponsorship of a Hindu queen Champa and her daughter princess Sajjabai. Its entrance is flanked by two Hindu shrines. An 8 feet broad stair leads down to the ground water in an octagonal well shaft. The architects provided for stages and space to stop and rest. The pillars and pilasters are notable, and contain four Sanskrit inscriptions which help understand the history and date this monument. The ruins used to build this stepwell came from at least two 13th-century Hindu temples, as confirmed by partial inscriptions on them. These were remains from a destructive invasion of Gujarat by Sultanates. Thus, the queen chose to preserve the historic artwork by embedding it here as this stepwell was completed in mid 16th-century.

This is a JPEG format plan and architectural drawing of a historic Indian temple or monument. The relative scale and relative dimensions in this architectural drawing are close to the actual but neither exact nor complete. The plan illustrates the design and layout, but some intricate details or parts of the temple may not be shown. In cases where exact measurements were not feasible, the drawing uses best approximations and rounds the best measurements feasible.
