India: Qutab Minar, Delhi

2008.04.13

The superb buildings in this complex date from the onset of Islamic rule in India.

The Qutab Minar itself is a soaring 73m/240ft-high tower of victory that was started in 1193, immediately after the defeat of the last Hindu kingdom in Delhi.








This incomplete tower stands to the north of the Qutab Minar and the mosque.
