A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is Delhi’s tallest minaret, with a height
of about 240 feet. The monument was built in order to surpass the beauty of
Minaret of Jam in Afghanistan, way back in 1052 CE. The monument has several
ruins and relics dating back to centuries ago, which together constitute the
Qutub Complex. In the olden days, you could climb the stairs and reach the top
of the minaret for an awesome view of the surrounding areas. Unfortunately,
that has been disallowed to protect the monument. However, despite that, it
continues to be an icon of Delhi’s landscape.
