New 7 Wonders of the World!!

Found this today thought this would be a great discussion. All but the great pyramids are non existent now, so they are doing a worldwide vote for the new 7 wonders of the world. Here is the site to vote at.

I think this is really neat, that we can have a say on somthing that will be around for a really long time. I read through it a little and one of the suggestions was for the statue of liberty to be one of them, i dont think its much of a wonder. What are some you guys think should be included? i def think they should keep the pyramids. And a couple more i think should be ont he list : stonehenge, easter island, Great wall of china, ...

Thanks for that link.

Angkor Wat would be a must for me. A breathtaking place even just in a picture.

CX.

they missed out the combined KFC and Taco Bell restaurant in Tampa florida
to me thats the most wonderful place on earth

It's funny. The Alhambra is on there. I went there once and I have my own version of the spot they took the photo at.

I heard about this a while ago ( we may have discussed it on here, can't remember where ).

Think it's a great idea.

One of my choices would be the Maoi Statues on Easter Island. Always facinated me.

Right then, my 7 are;

Taj Mahal, India
Pyramids, Egypt
Colluseum, Italy
Petra, Jordan
Great Wall of China, China
Angkor, Cambodia
Easter Island Statues, Chile


Each and every one a marvel, each and every one deserving of the title.

This is a great idea, and one long overdue in my opinion.
