Kalta Minor Minaret

An unfinished minaret beside the madrasa of Muhammad Amin Khan. The khan began the work in 1852, and after his death in 1855 it was abandoned, so the shaft breaks off at about 26 metres while the base measures more than 14 metres across. It differs from other minarets of the region in being faced with glazed tile the whole way, from the ground to the top.
