What should I wear when visiting?

Although Qutub Minar isn’t a religious site, it’s still practical to dress modestly and comfortably.

Comfortable walking shoes are a must—avoid heels or sandals with poor grip, as you will be treading on stone paths and lawns. Bring sunglasses, sunscreen, or an umbrella to protect against the sun.
