What is a "minaret"?
A minaret is a tall, slender tower that is often part of a mosque, serving as a visual landmark and a place from which the call to prayer is announced. Minarets are typically built with a narrow base that expands as it rises, often featuring balconies or open galleries. They can be adorned with intricate designs, tiles, and sometimes a crescent moon at the top. In addition to their religious function, minarets contribute to the architectural beauty of mosques and symbolize the presence of Islam in a community. They are important features in many Islamic cultures around the world.
