Explanation:
Kubla Khan" is considered to be one of the greatest poems by the English Romantic poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge, who said he wrote the strange and hallucinatory poem shortly after waking up from an opium-influenced dream in 1797. In the first part of the poem, the speaker envisions the landscape surrounding the Mongol ruler and Chinese emperor Kubla Khan’s summer palace, called "Xanadu," describing it as a place of beauty, pleasure, and violence. The speaker suggests that these qualities are all deeply intertwined and, in the final stanza, announces a desire to build a "pleasure palace" of the speaker's own through song. The poem is one of Coleridge's most famous, and has been interpreted in many different ways. Overall, though, it's possible to think of it as speaking to the creative ambitions of poetry itself—as well as to its limitations.

Explanation:
a. Kubla Khan, the Mongolian king, commanded his slaves to create an amazing domed edifice for pleasure and relaxation on the banks of the holy river Alph, which went through a labyrinth of tunnels so large that no one could measure them, and then down into an underground ocean in a region called Xanadu. As a result, they built a place with 10 kilometres of lush land enclosed by walls and towers.
b.There were gardens with bright tiny streams and aromatic trees, as well as really ancient forests with bright clearings in the centre. The dome was magnificent to look at and the architecture was amazing.
