Qutub Minar: A Tower Through Time 

Rising 73 meters into Delhi’s sky, the Qutub Minar is the tallest brick minaret in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built in the early 13th century by Qutb-ud-din Aibak and later completed by his successors, this architectural marvel blends Indo-Islamic artistry with a timeless sense of scale.

Photographing the minaret is an exercise in patience and perspective — every angle offers a new interplay of light, shadow, and carved detail. On this visit, I wandered between ruined arches, quiet courtyards, and the remains of the Quwwat-ul-Islam Mosque, capturing the monument’s silent dialogue with the centuries.
