Visiting Qutub Minar
What to see and how to plan
Start with the tower's fluted surfaces, then explore the surrounding gateways and remains. Comparing the different buildings gives context to the site's layered architecture.
Why this place matters
The early-thirteenth-century minaret rises 72.5 metres; the wider complex includes the Alai-Darwaza and Quwwatu'l-Islam mosque.
