Qutab Minar


On day one, Dave, Stan and myself ventured out into Dehli to get a jump-start on the trip. Our first visit was the Qutab Minar. It cost us 250 rupees to enter as foreigners....for Indians....5 rupees. Was taken back by the difference in price at first, but realized it made these historical places accessible to almost all Indians. It was a great place to relax and wind down after the long flight. The picture above is a shot down a hall by the "iron rod." oddly enough we got our picture taken with several students that asked for our picture. We thought it a bit weird at first but the people where extremely nice and there seemed to be no other motive other than sincere interest in getting photographed with foreign visitors.
