The correct answer is option 4, Fateh Pur Sikri. Buland Darwaza is a monumental gate located in Fatehpur Sikri, which was once the capital of the Mughal Empire. It was built by Emperor Akbar in 1601 to commemorate his victory over the kingdom of Gujarat. Buland Darwaza is an imposing structure, standing at a height of 54 meters, making it the highest gateway in the world. The gate is made of red sandstone and is adorned with intricate carvings and inscriptions from the Quran. It serves as the entrance to the Jama Masjid, a prominent mosque within the Fatehpur Sikri complex. The Buland Darwaza is a testament to the architectural brilliance and grandeur of the Mughal era.
