Kalta Minor Minaret
Kalta Minor Minaret, located in Khiva, Uzbekistan, is an unfinished minaret that stands out due to its wide and short appearance. It was intended to be the tallest minaret in the Islamic world but was left incomplete after the death of its patron, Muhammad Amin Khan, in 1855. Its unique shape and ornate tilework make it a notable landmark.
