__ PLEASE MARK ME BRAINLIST __
1 ) Gateway of India, Mumbai, Maharashtra
This gateway is considered to be one of the most famous landmarks in the world
2 ) Mexico City, Nahuatl México, Spanish Ciudad de México or in full Ciudad de México, D.F., city and capital of Mexico, synonymous with the Federal District (Distrito Federal; D.F.). The term Mexico City can also apply to the capital’s metropolitan area, which includes the Federal District but extends beyond it to the west, north, and east, where the state (estado) of México surrounds it on three sides. In contrast, the southern part of the Federal District sustains a limited population on its mountain slopes.
3 ) It's about the way that a building responds to the needs of its users. Our culture is focused on getting the most from a building. Using less to get more, and creating built environments that won't grow stale in a few years and outlive their usefulness. Architecture does reflect culture.

5) Gupta Period: Temple, Sculpture, Art and Schools!
The Gupta period may be described as ‘classic’ in the sense of the degree of perfection it achieved—something that was never achieved before and has seldom been achieved since— and in the perfect balance and harmony of ail elements in style and iconography.
The Guptas were Brahmanical by religion with special devotion to Vishnu, but they showed exemplary tolerance for both Buddhism and Jainism.
