Qutab Minar is amongst the tallest and the most famous monuments in the world. This beautiful minaret is 234 feet high and is regarded as the tallest individual tower in the world. The Qutab Minar is one of the many masterpieces that depicted the sheer brilliance of the Mughal architects of those times. Qutub-ud-din Aibak placed the groundwork for Qutub Minar in 1199 AD and his descendant Shamsu'd-Din- Iitutmish completed the works on this magnificent structure by adding three more storeys.
The exquisitely carved minaret has a number of storeys and inscriptions all round the tower. This monument of fervent historical interest is open from sunrise to sunset. Indian visitors are charged an entry fee of Rs.10 while the foreigners have to pay Rs. 250. Visitors are allowed to carry their cameras inside in order to capture their memories.
