Qutb Minar. Delhi.

le Qutb Minar fut édifié à partir de 1193 par le sultan musulman Qutb-Ud-Din. Il est le témoin de l’aube de l’Islam en Inde puisque ce sultan vainquit le dernier roi Hindou de l’histoire. C’est une sorte de Tour de la Victoire, semblable à celles qu’édifiaient les Afghans. Elle servit également de minaret.
