A Correct answer
Explanation

Correct. The word ‘marvel’ is a singular common noun beginning with a consonant sound and so, ‘a marvel’ is the correct expression. The definite article (the) is used before words that refer to unique and famous buildings. Since Taj Mahal is a unique structure of historical importance, the correct expression is – ‘the Taj Mahal’. Thus, the correct answer is – ‘What a marvel the Taj Mahal is!’
