  • Such a beautiful monument on the outskirts of Delhi and also one of the oldest structures in the city, being built between between 1199 and 1220. The tower was quite beautiful even in the evening...

  • Impressive historic monument with stunning architecture and informative displays about India's rich cultural heritage. The intricate and beautiful architecture of the monument left me breathless. The surrounding Qutub Complex also has a rich history, with several historic tombs and other structures that provide a fascinating glimpse into India's past. The intricate carvings and designs on the walls of the various structures within the complex are stunning and offer a wonderful example of the rich cultural heritage of India. I was particularly impressed with the informative displays that explain the history and significance of each structure within the Qutub Complex. These displays were helpful in understanding the rich history and significance of the monument and its surroundings. Overall, Qutub Minar is a must-visit for anyone interested in history, architecture, and culture. The stunning architecture, rich history, and informative displays make it a great place to learn about India's rich cultural heritage.
