Which of the following features of Indian temples resembles pylons of the Egyptian temples?

  • A.Lat 
  • B.Vimana 
  • C.Gopura 
  • D.Shikhara

Answer: C

It is the gopura.

The gopuram is the great gateway tower of a south Indian temple, tapering as it rises, set in the enclosure wall rather than over the sanctum - the same role, and much the same profile, as the pylon of an Egyptian temple.
