India Gate – Tribute to Heroes
Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, India Gate was originally known as the All India War Memorial. It commemorates 90,000 soldiers of the British Indian Army who died in World War I. Since 1971, the Amar Jawan Jyoti — the eternal flame — honors the bravery and sacrifice of Indian soldiers.
Qutub Minar – Towering Heritage
Inspired by the Minaret of Jam in Afghanistan, Qutub Minar was begun in 1193 by Qutbuddin Aibak.

Standing 234 feet high, it is one of the tallest minarets in the world, adorned with Arabic and Nagari inscriptions, reflecting India’s rich Mughal heritage.
