Solution
The correct option is C Italy
Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore
Cathedral of Florence. The Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore was completed in 1434 and is the most important landmark in Florence, as well as being the fourth largest church in the world. The typical Italian Gothic building, the Cathedral of Florence, is dedicated to "Santa Maria del Fiore".
The Leaning Tower of Pisa,
The leaning of the Tower of Pisa comes into the story in 1173, when construction began. Thanks to the soft ground, it had begun to lean by the time its builders got to the third story, in 1178. Shifting soil had destabilized the tower's foundations
The ruins of Pompeii,
The ghostly ruins of ancient Pompeii (Pompei in Italian) make for one of the world's most engrossing archaeological experiences. Much of the site's value lies in the fact that the town wasn't simply blown away by Vesuvius in AD 79 but buried under a layer of lapilli (burning fragments of pumice stone).
