The New Seven Wonders of the World

The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World was the first known list of man-made structures that were regarded as remarkable works by ancient historians. Because these early historians traveled throughout the Mediterranean area, the original list of the seven wonders were likewise situated in the Mediterranean.
  • Great Pyramid of Giza
  • Hanging Gardens of Babylon
  • Statue of Zeus at Olympia
  • Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
  • Mausoleum of Maussollos at Halicarnassus
  • Colossus of Rhodes
  • Lighthouse of Alexandria
The following artwork is a depiction of the Seven Wonders by 16th century artist Marten Heemskerk.

among the new 7 wonders of the world, i find the Jesus statue in Brazil to be the least deserving. I think the voting was done online? The entire Amazon might have been given internet access to vote. LOL
