History of the Qutub Minar (Delhi): Who Built It, When and Why | Medieval Indian History
Qutub Minar stands regally tall in Delhi but it is as mysterious as it's historical. What's the history of Qutub Minar really? Was the Qutub Minar really built by Qutub-ud-din Aibak as we're often told in our history lessons? Or does it carry remnants of an India from much before 1199 AD?
This is the real, unbiased history of the Qutub Minar, the most visited UNESCO World Heritage Site in New Delhi, India, with over 3 million visitors annually.
Yes, it raises more questions than it answers but that's, more often than not, the case with history.
