800 Year Old Stone Tower in Delhi, India 🇮🇳

I visited the Qutub Complex in Delhi which hosts the Qutub Minar, a minaret constructed as a "victory tower" by the first sultan of Delhi, Qutb al-Din Aibak, over 900 years ago.

I paid the foreigner price of 600 rupees, 15x more than regular ticket price of 40 rupees, to enter this UNESCO world heritage site. However I did save some money by sneaking my camera in rather than paying for a video camera permit, which was only fair.

I was very disappointed that it's was not permitted to enter the minaret. I learned that it was closed to the public 40 years ago after a tragic incident and has never been reopened since. I probably wouldn't have visited it if I knew that I couldn't go inside it. 600 rupees seems a bit much just to be able to look at it from the outside and walk around the ruins surrounding it.

It was a beautiful area to walk around on a sunny day though and I did learn a bit about what the different ruins were and when they were built. Not everything had an information sign next to it though so I just had to fill in the blanks with my imagination.
