This was a nice idea, but I really have to agree with the Egyptians’ indignation at the absence of the pyramids the only survivor of the original seven wonders. Scholars continue to debate how they were made.
Anyway, congratulations to the new Seven Wonders, I’m sure they are awesome. I have been to one of them, Petra in Jordan and it is breathtaking. Nobody forgets their first glimpse (see Gallery) of the Treasury from the Siq (the narrow red sandstone canyon leading to Petra). I hope to see the rest of them someday.

The Great Wall of China, Petra in Jordan and Brazil's statue of Christ the Redeemer are among the modern day seven wonders of the world chosen in a poll of 100 million online voters, organizers said on Saturday. The other four are Peru's Machu Picchu, the mountain settlement that symbolizes the Inca empire, Mexico's Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza, the Colosseum in Rome and the Taj Mahal in India. The seven winners were announced at a glitzy show at the Benfica stadium in Lisbon after what is likely to be the biggest online poll at www.new7wonders.com. "Never before in history have so many people participated in a global decision," actress Hilary Swank said at the presentation. (news.yahoo)
