The southern minaret of Jama Masjid, one of only a few minarets in India open to tourists. The 130-step spiral staircase rewards climbers with a 360-degree panorama of Old Delhi's rooftops and beyond.
Built as part of Jama Masjid between 1644 and 1656, the twin minarets stand 40 metres tall with three-storey octagonal balconies. The southern minaret was opened to visitors in the late 20th century.
