The beauties on the walls of New Delhi Qutab Minar certainly filled me with awe when I first laid my eyes on them. New Delhi Qutab Minar, the 239ft sandstone tower is undoubtedly the largest tower in India. This magnificent tower which is also an Indo-Islamic architectural wonder , stands in the Qutab Complex located at Aurabindo Marg, near Mehrauli, 14 Km south of Connaught place in Delhi. Historically, it was King Qutubuddin Aibak of Slave dynasty who had laid the foundation of the Qutab Minar in 1199, adjoining the Quwwat-ul-Islam mosque, to proclaim the victory of Islam, after the defeat of the last Hindu kingdom in Delhi. The tower has survived a series of lightning bolts and earthquakes during the past centuries.Today, it has a slight tilt, but the beauties on those walls are still there. There are always beautiful things on the walls. Would you mind taking a photograph of the walls of your room perhaps, and post them to show the beauties there? This is a meme for anyone who cares to join. Just click and leave your link here so that I could get back and have a peep at the beauties on your walls.
