Answer 1

Answer:

C. Bagh-i-Jud (now Lodi Gardens)

The Sayyid and Lodi rulers primarily commissioned tombs (maqbaras), many of which are located around Delhi. A key architectural advancement during this period was the double dome, which featured a hollow inner dome for structural stability and aesthetic appeal. All Lodi rulers were buried in Bagh-i-Jud, now known as Lodi Gardens. Tombs built during this era followed two distinct styles: Orthogonal tombs – Reserved for royalty Square tombs – Built for nobles
