From an RMP packet in practice:

One story about this structure relates that a mason readjusted its foundation stone, which had been set by a holy man *BUZZ* Leaning Tower of Pisa

Right answer: Golden Temple.

Question up to that point: "Outside this structure one can find three sacred trees known as ber, and one part of this structure is called the 'sixty eight sacred places'. Carpets in this building incorporate the dehin style."

No idea how I managed to overlook those first two sentences…

Well, yeah, that's what I negged on. But what makes it worse is that it already said something about being a 1991 film, and I've seen Gone in 60 Seconds about eight times, meaning none of the preceding clues made sense to me, but I buzzed anyway.
