Join us on a journey through history as we explore Qutub Minar, the tallest stone tower in India and one of the most iconic monuments of Delhi!

Built in 1199 AD by Qutbu’d-Din Aibak, the Minar was originally constructed to give the call for prayer. The first storey was raised by Aibak, while the remaining three were completed by his son-in-law Shamsu’d-Din Iltutmish (1211–36 AD). Each level features intricate balconies supported by honeycomb-patterned stone brackets.

🏛️ Quwwat-ul-Islam Mosque, located northeast of the Minar, is the earliest surviving mosque built by the Delhi Sultans. Constructed in 1198 AD using elements from 27 demolished Hindu and Jain temples, it showcases a blend of cultures and striking architectural details.

✨ Don’t miss the legendary Iron Pillar, inscribed in Sanskrit and dating back to the 4th century AD — still rust-free after centuries!

🔸 Other highlights in the Qutub Complex:

The ornate Tomb of Iltutmish (1235 AD)
The Ala’i-Darwaza gateway, built in 1311 AD by Alauddin Khalji
The unfinished but massive Ala’i Minar, meant to rival Qutub Minar in size
The Qutub Complex is more than just a monument — it's a testament to India's rich and layered history.
