New 7 Wonders of the World
The final tally produced this list of the world's top human-built wonders:
• 1 The Great Wall of China
• 2 Petra in Jordan
• 3 Brazil's statue of Christ the Redeemer
• 4 Peru's Machu Picchu
• 5 Mexico's Chichen Itza pyramid
• 6 The Colosseum in Rome
• 7 India's Taj Mahal
How do you have a list without the Egyptian Pyramids?
I had never heard of the Petra in Jordan, so I googled it. Meh, it looks cool, but not as cool as the Pyramids. The statue of Christ the Redeemer is really cool, but not sure if it is top 7, nor the Mexican Chichen Itza pyramid.
I would have voted for Stonehenge and the Egyptian Pyramids. Not sure about my 7th. Maybe the Acropolis in Greece, the Mexican Chichen Itza Pyramid, Easter Islands or Christ the Redeemer (unique)
