Answer :

Answer:
The correct answer is D. The Taj Mahal, built by a Mughal emperor is an example of how architecture in India was inspired by Islamic influence in the region.
Explanation:
The Taj Mahal is a funerary monument built between 1631 and 1654 in the city of Agra, Uttar Pradesh state, India, on the banks of the Yamuna river, by the Muslim emperor Shah Jahan of the Mughal dynasty. The imposing set of buildings was erected in honor of his favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal, who died in the delivery of his fourteenth daughter.
The Taj Mahal is considered the most beautiful example of a palace, a style that combines elements of Islamic, Persian, Indian and even Turkish architecture. This monument has achieved special notoriety for the romantic character of its inspiration. Although the mausoleum covered by the white marble dome is the best known, the Taj Mahal is a walled complex of buildings that occupies 17 hectares and that also includes a large mosque, a guest house and gardens.
