   I wonder if anyone knows what the significance of the minarets is?  Why these are incorporated into the architectural structure.

I've always wondered about church steeples too.  I think it is to make spotting places of worship easy for travelers.

As far as I know Jewish synagogues or temples, do not have such structures.
