Answer 1

Answer:

"Regional architecture also excelled during the Mughal period" this statement is true as Mughal period was the period of glory in the field of architecture. They also laid out many formal gardens with running water. In fact, use of running water even in their palaces and pleasure resorts was a special feature of the Mughals. For example, in Bengal the local rulers had developed a roof that was designed which looked similar to a thatched roof. This ‘Bangla dome’ was liked by the Mughals to such an extent that they used it in their architecture. The impact of other regions was also noticeable. Many buildings in Akbar’s capital Fatehpur Sikri showed the influence of the architectural styles of Gujarat and Malwa. Qutab Minar is also an example, it is five storeys high. The first floor was constructed by Qutbuddin Aybak and the rest were constructed by Iltutmish around 1229. It was damaged over the years by lighting and earthquakes. It was repaired by: Alauddin Khalji, Muhammad Tughluq Firuz Shah Tughluq and Ibrahim Lodhi. There were attempts in France, twelfth century onwards to build churches that were taller and lighter than earlier buildings. This architectural style, known as Gothic; has the following distinguishing features: High pointed arches, Use of stained glass, often painted with scenes drawn from the Bible, and Flying buttresse.
