While in Delhi, some of the
tourist attractions that can be visited are :
QutubMinar
QutubMinar is an architectural
wonder of Delhi that was built in 1198 by Qutub-ud-din Aibak. He started the
construction of the minaret and his successor Iltutmish continued it. The final
touches of building fifth storey were carried forward by Firoz Shah Tughlaq in
the year 1368. QutubMinarappears to be very impressive amidst the rain drops.
The beauty of the minaret increases when it gets soaked in water and the damp
floor offers you a very soothing vision. It is a must visit destination when
you are planning a short trip around
Delhi during monsoon.
But, you need to avoid visiting
QutubMinar, if the roads are drenched in water because, probably, it is the
time when the surroundings near minar are also dampened. In fact, there are
chances of water filled up on the pathways if severe downpour takes place. To
be precise, plan your short trip around
Delhi to QutubMinar in rainy season, cautiously after checking all the
weather conditions. QutubMinar has been declared as a second largest minar in
India, with a height of 73 meters. With the total number of 379 steps, it seems
to be very high.
PuranaQila
PuranaQila is the oldest minar
that has been renowned for its unique structure in India. Sher Shah Suri, the
Afghan King rebuilt this minar. After his death in 1545, his son Humayun
continued the construction of PuranaQila. Positioned in the legendary city of
Indraprastha, PuranaQila is among the best places to be visited in monsoon
while enjoying short trip around Delhi.
Qila-i-Kuhna is a mosque that was built by Sher Shah Suri in the year 1541
within the PuranaQila. The mosque is known for its pre-Mughal design that
portrays horseshoes shaped arches in its five doorways.
On a whole, it can be concluded
that the abovementioned attractions are among the top destinations to be at in
Delhi in the rainy season. Last, but not the least, carry all the rainy gears
to be on a safer side.
