Another contributing factor is related specifically to the receipt of materials, and not controlling the records, and communicating with accounting in a timely manner.…

The guides do not harass and an official audio tour is available at a nominal price if you would rather do your own sightseeing.The complex also houses the Iron Pillar which has had an interesting theory attached to it.

Unfortunately, due to the effect the \”oily\” hands were having on the pillar, it has now been cornered off.The other magnificent fact about the pillar is that even though it is 98% Iron, and has been in the open, it still remains rust free after close to 1600 years.
