Hello everyone, this is Ahmed Daan and you're watching one of my India travel videos and today I'm taking you to the Kutab Miner and I'll show you some roadside videos on my way to the Kutab Miner. I'm right in front of the Kutab Miner and there's a long lineup to purchase the ticket so all these people are just waiting for the lineup to get the ticket and this is the ticket counter. However for foreigners there is a short lineup so basically if you're a foreigner and if you're with a guide you don't have to stay in line up and then here is the main entrance which you have to go through that gate after you purchase the ticket. A little bit about Kutab Miner. Kutab Miner is a red and marble sandstone, a 73 meter tower or 73 meter high tower which was commenced in 1193 by Kutab Uddin Iback who was the first Muslim ruler in New Delhi or in India. And then it has five distinct stories each with their project in balcony. The first three floors are made of red sandstone and the fourth and fifth floors are made of marble and sandstone. Kutab Uddin Iback was only able to make the basement then his successor Il Tutmush made three more stories in 1368 and then the next ruler Feroz Shah Tuglak completed the fifth story. The tower represents victory and it was built after the defeat of the last Hindu kingdom in Delhi. There are two mosques including the first mosque in India which is called Kawat Ul Islam and it was built at the foot of the tower. However materials used to build these mosques were taken from the demolished Hindu temples.
