The huge Qutb Minar, built to mark Muslim dominance over the whole Delhi area: of course, local Hindus tell will tell you it's a fusion, but hey - bottom line ...
.. it's a mosque.
A huge Bahai temple, with queues and crowds to match ...
More Lodi architecture in Delhi, which we like.
And more, even though it's after sunset by the time I took this one.
