The description puts on view that Jhulta Minar or Shaking Minarets is extremely exceptional. Every minaret is 3 storeyed high and is smartened up with intricate designs imprinted on them and balconies made of stone that are approximately 21.34 meters lofty. You will be startled to know that if one minaret quivers, rest of the minarets will automatically vibrate.
