उत्तर
The characteristic feature of Sultanate architecture is the extensive use of bricks, arches, domes, beams, and balconies. The Turkish monuments were plain. There was a liberal use of floral and geometric designs. The use of red sandstone added colour to their buildings. Verses from the Koran were engraved on the walls of some buildings. Some of the important monuments from the Sultanate period include the Qutb Minar complex, the Alai Darwaza, the tomb of Ghiyasuddin Tughlaq, Firoz Shah Kotla, Tughlaqabad Fort, and the tombs of the Lodi kings.
