Options:

It is taken from Hazara Rama temple.

None of the above

Correct Answer:

The images in the central shrine of Hazara Rama temple are made of terracotta but they glitter.

Explanation:

One of the most spectacular of these is one known as the Hazara Rama temple. This was probably meant to be used only by the king and his family. The images in the central shrine are missing; however, sculpted panels on the walls survive. These include scenes from the Ramayana sculpted on the inner walls of the shrine.
