Qutub Minar is the world's tallest brick minaret at 72.5 m — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Delhi's oldest standing monument, built by Qutb ud-Din Aibak in 1193. The surrounding Qutub Complex houses the remarkable Iron Pillar (Ashoka Pillar) that has resisted rust for 1,600 years, and the earliest mosque in India. One of the top Delhi tourist places and a Golden Triangle tour highlight, best visited at sunrise for photography before the crowds arrive.
