Qutub Minar photos copyrighted by: Alan Ingram
Qutab Minar, the 239ft
sandstone tower is an Indo-Islamic architectural
wonder of ancient India. This magnificent tower of victory stands in the Qutab Complex located at Aurabindo Marg, near Mehrauli, 14 Km south of Connaught place in Delhi. In 1199 AD, Qutub-ud-Din Aibak laid the foundation of Qutub Minar for the use of Mu'azzin (crier) to give calls for prayer. However, only the first story was completed
by Qutub-ud-din.
