Kalta Minor
Kalta Minor is a historical site located in Uzbekistan, near the ancient city of Khiva. It is known for its impressive minaret, which was intended to be the tallest in the region but was never completed. The structure stands at about 26 meters tall and features intricate tile work that showcases the artistry of Islamic architecture.
Construction of Kalta Minor began in the 19th century under the rule of Muhammad Amin Khan, who aimed to create a grand monument. Although the minaret remains unfinished, it has become a symbol of Khiva and attracts many visitors interested in its unique history and architectural significance.
