what about the Great Barrier Reef as one of your seven wonders of the world - Reef Encounter allows you to spend 1 or several nights surrounded by the crystal clear waters of the Great Barrier Reef - I am not sure if you can beat that experience

Anyone who has seen Petra in Southern Jordan would vote for it as one of the Wonders of the World. We have been there twice and find it incredibly spellbinding.

The Roman Coliseum has to be a given. Walking on the outside or on the inside exhibits a feeling that the walls are talking to you. Let your imagination fly as to what took place a few generations, examine the feeling of the participants. How advanced a society that could turn this into a moat and have naval battles. Think of the underground catacombs. simply amazing.

I have been searching all morning for a place to vote on the 7 wonders....where can this be done, and why is this so difficult to find???

Include Sydney Opera House in your list.

I went to the Galapagos Islands in 2006 and hope to go back someday. It's an unbelievable place. Swimming with sea lions, sea turtles, sting rays isjust one of the special things we did. It's truly has my vote.

I believe that Yellowstone National park holds some of the most truly wondrous things in the world. Old faithful has to be on this list. this geyser has erupted for thousands of years. the fact that this pristine woodland is on top of one of the most volital volcanoes in history is truly amazing.

Posted By beverly bell on July 5, 2007, 9:52 AM

The seven wonders of the world is The Crhist Redemptiom Statue that is IN BRAZIL - RIO DE JANEIRO...whay is not listed...and where can I vote. What site...??????????????
Thanks!

Posted By Mirian Costa on July 5, 2007, 9:58 AM

The Vatican Complex in Rome is one not yet mentioned. How do you have works by Bernini, Michelangelo and the rest; not to mention the architecture of St. Peters and it not be considered a wonder of the world? Also, an individual work that should be considered is The David in Florence. Absolutely awe-inspiring for anyone who has ever seen it.

Posted By Mike Cisneros on July 5, 2007, 10:01 AM

I considered the original 7 wonders "wondrous" b/c man erected/created them without the technology & engineering of today's world.
But I guess thousands of years from now they'll be saying the same thing about the wonders we are choosing now. That is... IF they are still around. It's sad that of the original 7 only one is left. SO much for that fleetwood mac song "if i live to see the 7 wonders"

Posted By TSQMcL on July 5, 2007, 10:10 AM

I vote for Machu Picchu in

Posted By W E Brown on July 5, 2007, 2:22 PM

I have visited many of the sites nominated and would rate the top three as Macchu Pichu, the Great Wall, and the Grand Canyon. Yellowstone deserves consideration as a natural wonder, and--for a dark horse man-made wonder--the Terra Cotta warriors in Xian, China.

Shouldn't there be two categories-- the natural wonders and the manmade wonders?

They didn't even mention Borobudor in Jogjakarta or the Temple of Karnak in Luxor.

THE PARTHENON, ATHENS, GREECE.

Posted By Stephanie Swank on July 6, 2007, 12:15 AM

I vote the Grand Canyon. There's no words to describe the feeling you have watching the eagles glided in the canyons.

Posted By Antoinette on July 6, 2007, 12:49 AM

It has to be the Terra Cotta Warriers in Xian, China

Machu Picchu, The Great Wall of China, Angkor Wat (or Ta Phrom), Great Barrier Reef, Uluru (Ayers Rock), Easter Island, Anything in Egypt (Karnak, Abu Simbel etc), The Pyramids/Sphinx, \The Galapagos Islands, The Grand Canyon, Iguasu Falls.
Generally, it's a great wonder if you stand there and go WOW, How did they do that, or How could this happen or This is Unbelievable!!!!

Posted By Stephanie Pincson on July 6, 2007, 8:47 PM

I would like to nominate the Rice Terraces of the Mountain Province in the Philippines, it has been overlooked because of inaccessibility but it is worth the eight hours of bus ride when you behold these Stairways to Heaven. It is said that when these paddocks are joined end to end, it will reach halfway aroud the world. These terraces were built for rice planting through hundreds of years. Awesome can't fully describe it.

Petra ("the pink city"), in Jordan is one of the most astounding sites I've ever seen. It's like being transported into the Tales of Arabian Nights!

Posted By Roxy Girard on July 7, 2007, 6:08 PM

I keep thinking, "But these are all manmade" and I think there should be 2 lists, as another person said, one for natural wonders without the interference of people and another for manmade ones.

Posted By Esther Corley on July 9, 2007, 8:57 AM

Missed the vote. Very interested in the final results. Please forward to me. Thanks

Posted By Cindy on July 13, 2007, 6:42 PM

Angkor Wat took my breath away, I think it's definitely up there. Also, what about the Mayan ruins in Tikal, Guatemala.

Posted By Algarve holidays on March 30, 2010, 11:43 AM

What kind of matter really, thank you for sharing, we have a common interest.

Posted By hockey jersey on October 18, 2010, 12:52 PM

The "Ifugao & Banaue Rice Terraces" located in the Mountain Province region of the Philippines should most definitely make it to the list.


It's the Filipino version of "stairways to heaven" and very beautiful to look at when newly-planted rice is still green; but, nothing will match the sight of mature golden leaves and ready-to-harvest rice grains. :-)
