ミナレット
A [b]minaret[/b] is a type of [[tower]] typically built into or adjacent to [[mosque]]s. Minarets are generally used to project the Muslim call to prayer (adhan), but they also served as landmarks. They can have a variety of forms, from thick, squat towers to soaring, pencil-thin [[spire]]s.

For similar counterpart found on churches or cathedrals, see [[steeple]].
