Kos Minar in the National Zoological Park Delhi, India.

Kos minar at Palwal along Grand Trunk Road in Haryana, India; the state has the highest number of surviving Kos Minar in the Indian subcontinent.
The Kos Minars are medieval Indian milestones along the Grand Trunk Road in northern Indian subcontinent, that were made by the 16th-century Pashtun ruler Sher Shah Suri. Kos Minars were erected to serve as markers of distance along royal routes from Agra to Ajmer, Agra to Lahore, and from Agra to Mandu in the south.

Kos Minars were described as a "marvel of India" by early European travellers such as Sir Thomas Roe and have been labeled as an integral part of India's ''national communication system" by Archaeological Survey of India.[1]

Kos, one fourth of a Yojana,is an ancient Indian unit of distance. It can represent either a distance of approximately 1.8 kilometres (1.1 mi) or 3.2 kilometres (2.0 mi). Minar is a Persian word for tower. Abul Fazl recorded in Akbar Nama that in the year 1575 AD, Akbar issued an order that at every Kos on the way from Agra to Ajmer, a pillar or a minar should be erected for the comfort of the travelers.

Apart from these, many caravanserais (roadside inns) were also built for the tired and weary travelers.
