Qutub Minar

Qutub Minar, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of Delhi's most iconic landmarks. This 73-meter-tall minaret was constructed in the 12th century by Qutb-ud-din Aibak and later completed by his successors. The tower is an exquisite example of Indo-Islamic architecture, adorned with intricate carvings and verses from the Quran. The surrounding Qutub complex includes other historical structures like the Quwwat-ul-Islam Mosque and the Iron Pillar. Qutub Minar is a must-visit for its historical significance and architectural grandeur.
