Exploring the stories of silence- Qutub Complex

History has always intrigued me.. the stories, the culture, the people, the monuments !! My all time favourite are the stories from the Mughal India !  In this series of exploring the stories of silence, are pictures from my photo walks at these Historical monuments who carry many many stories in them with such elegance and grandeur !

The first one presented here are captures at the Qutub Complex. The complex comprises of the Qutub Minar (built in 1193 by Qutub-din-Aibak, it is the tallest Minaret in India a UNESCO world heritage site) , Quwwat-ul-Islam Mosque, the Iron Pillar, the Alai gate, the Alai minar and tombs of Iltutmish, Alauddin Khilji and Imam Zamin.
