qutub minar

It is one of the  tallest minaret in India.
And it has got arabic inscriptions and ancient islamic monument.
It is on the mehrauli road and evening time is good time to visit,with full of lights and ticket cost is minimum.
It has got red sandstone covered with intricate carvings and verses from quran.
It has got seven storey narrow staircase and earlier it was allowed to climb and now people are not allowed to climb .
There is also an iron pillar in the complex and the belief is that one who encircles the entire  column with their arms can have their wish granted.
but due to corrosive qualities of sweat now fence have been laid .

There are many things to explore and it is quite interesting place.
Places nearby to visit: Chatarpur temple,garden of five senses.
