Qutub Minar

Historical minaret in Mehrauli.

The Qutub Minar, a towering UNESCO World Heritage Site in Delhi, is a masterpiece of Indo-Islamic architecture. Standing at 73 meters, this five-story red sandstone minaret was initiated by Qutb-ud-din Aibak in 1192.

The complex features intricate carvings, Quranic inscriptions, and the legendary Iron Pillar, famous for its rust-resistant properties. As the world's tallest brick minaret, it remains a premier destination for travelers exploring India’s rich medieval history and architectural brilliance.
