The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

The picture shows a large mosque built of red sandstone with bands of white marble. It has two tall, tapering minarets at the corners, a central pointed-arch gateway (iwan) and three bulbous domes with black and white stripes, standing on a raised platform with an open arcaded facade.
This is the Jama Masjid of Delhi (built by Shah Jahan).
Qutub Minar is a single tall tower with no domes, the Taj Mahal is a white marble mausoleum with one central dome and four slender minarets, and Hagia Sophia in Istanbul has a huge central dome with a different, stepped Byzantine form.
