[2] The Jhulta Minar, a part of the Siddi Bashir Mosque, is an engineering marvel of Indo-Islamic architecture built in 1461 CE.
The three-storey tall structure, with intricate designs on each minaret, is famous for its built-in quality of swaying to the minimum force applied to its uppermost arc.
Construction was dated from 1452,[3] although the style and material of the minarets point to the close of Mahmud Begada's reign in 1511, or later.
[4] The body of the building was destroyed in 1753 during the war between the Marathas and Jawān Mard Khān, Mughal governor of Gujarat; only two minarets and the arched central gateway connecting them remain.
[6] Entry to the shaking minaret was prohibited following an incident in 1981 at Qutb Minar in Delhi, when a stampede resulted in the deaths of many children.
