The tower is located in the state of Maharashtra near the Daulatabad- Deogiri fort complex. It was erected in 1445 C.E by King Ala-ud-din Bahmani to commemorate his capture of the fort. Chand Minar bears resemblance to the Qutb Minar of Delhi and was inspired from it. The Chand Minar is considered to be among the finest specimens of Persian architecture in Southern India. It is 30-metre high and is divided into 4 storeys and 24 chambers. A small mosque or praying hall sits at the base of the tower which is covered with Persian blue tiles. The Tower also displays some indigenous Indian architectural features such as the brackets supporting it's balconies[1] The tower's height makes it visible from every corner of the Daulatabad Fort[2] GalleryReferences1. ^{{cite book|last1=DESAI|first1=ZIYAUD-DIN A.|title=Indo-Islamic architecture|date=2016|publisher=Publications Division Ministry of Information & Broadcasting|isbn=9788123024066|url=https://books.google.co.in/books?id=6yIPDgAAQBAJ|accessdate=31 March 2018}} {{commons}}{{coord missing|Maharashtra}}2. ^{{cite news|last1=Desai|first1=Salil|title=Fort of fatal surprises & deadly innovations|url=http://www.tribuneindia.com/news/spectrum/travel/fort-of-fatal-surprises-deadly-innovations/146319.html|accessdate=31 March 2018|newspaper=The Tribune|date=17 October 2015}} 3 : Towers in India|Minarets|Aurangabad district, Maharashtra |
