The Kalyan minaret was built in 1127 AD. Its height is about 47 meters and it dominates the center of the old city. For this reason it was called the Kalyan minaret meaning “great.” It was also called the tower of death used as a place of public execution for criminals (they would drop people from this height).

Veniva definita anche la torre della morte utilizzato come luogo di esecuzione pubblica per i criminali (farebbero cadere le persone da questa altezza).
