Qutb Minar: Built between 1193 and 1369, the Qutb Minar is a massive tower that was built to solidify Islamic rule of Delhi. Some also believe that it served to call the faithful to prayer.

Taj Mahal: The Taj Mahal is one of the world's most famous landmarks and is probably one of the most commonly visited attractions in India.

The dome of the building has verses from the Koran and semi-precious stones on the inside. It is a magnificent feat of architecture that is as impressive today as it was when it was built.

The Golden Temple: The Golden Temple is the center of Sikhism. It is gold colored and sits on the water so that the reflection of the gold is absolutely dazzling. Nobody really knows the origin of the temple, but many speculate that it has something to do with the fact that the waters are thought to have healing powers.
