let's start ... 

                                                 So today we will talk about QUTUB MINAR

Qutub Minar is a towering monument located in Delhi, India. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most prominent attractions in the city. Standing at a height of around 73 meters (240 feet), the Qutub Minar is the tallest brick minaret in the world.

The construction of the Qutub Minar began in 1192 by Qutb-ud-din Aibak, the founder of the Delhi Sultanate. Over the years, several rulers, including Iltutmish and Firoz Shah Tughlaq, made additions to the structure, resulting in a unique blend of architectural styles. The minaret is predominantly constructed with red sandstone and showcases intricate carvings, verses from the Quran, and geometric patterns.

The Qutub Minar is surrounded by several historical structures, including the Quwwat-ul-Islam Mosque, which is one of the earliest mosques in India. The Iron Pillar, located within the complex, is another notable attraction known for its remarkable rust resistance despite being over a thousand years old.

Visitors can climb up the spiral staircase inside the Qutub Minar to reach the top and enjoy panoramic views of Delhi. However, due to safety concerns, the interior of the minaret has been closed to the public since 1981.

Qutub Minar stands as a testament to India's rich architectural heritage and its historical significance. It continues to captivate tourists from around the world with its grandeur and historical allure, serving as a prominent symbol of Delhi's rich past.

Thank you😍..........
