 Petra – Jordan
 The Colosseum - Rome, Italy
 Chichen Itza - Yucatán, Mexico

 Taj Mahal - Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India
Great Pyramid of Giza - Giza Necropolis, Egypt
The Great Pyramid of Giza is the oldest and largest of the
three pyramids in the Giza pyramid complex bordering
what is now El Giza, Egypt. It is the oldest of the Seven
Wonders of the Ancient World, and the only one to remain
largely intact.
This complex of ancient monuments includes the three
pyramid complexes known as the Great Pyramids, the
massive sculpture known as the Great Sphinx, several
cemeteries, a workers' village and an industrial complex.
It is located in the Libyan Desert, approximately 9 km (5
mi) west of the Nile river at the old town of Giza, and
about 13 km (8 mi) southwest of Cairo city centre.
Great Wall of China – China
 The Great Wall of China is a series of fortifications made of stone, brick, tamped
earth, wood, and other materials, generally built along an east-to-west line across
the historical northern borders of China to protect the Chinese states and empires
against the raids and invasions of the various nomadic groups of the Eurasian
Steppe.
 The Great Wall stretches from Dandong in the east to Lop Lake in the west, along
an arc that roughly delineates the southern edge of Inner Mongolia. A
comprehensive archaeological survey, using advanced technologies, has concluded
that the Ming walls measure 8,850 km (5,500 mi). This is made up of 6,259 km
(3,889 mi) sections of actual wall, 359 km (223 mi) of trenches and 2,232 km (1,387
mi) of natural defensive barriers such as hills and rivers. Another archaeological
survey found that the entire wall with all of its branches measure out to be 21,196
km (13,171 mi)
Petra – Jordan
 Petra , originally known to the Nabataeans as Raqmu, is a historical and
archaeological city in southern Jordan. The city is famous for its rock-cut
architecture and water conduit system. Another name for Petra is the Rose City
due to the color of the stone out of which it is carved.
 Established possibly as early as 312 BC as the capital city of the Arab
Nabataeans,it is a symbol of Jordan, as well as Jordan's most-visited tourist
attraction. The Nabataeans were nomadic Arabs who took advantage of Petra's
proximi to regional trade routes to establish it as a major trading hub. The
Nabataeans are also known for their great ability in constructing efficient water-
collecting methods in the barren deserts and their talent in carving structures into
solid rocks.Petra lies on the slope of Jebel al-Madhbah (identified by some as the
biblical Mount Hor) in a basin among the mountains which form the eastern flank
of Arabah (Wadi Araba), the large valley running from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of
Aqaba. It has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1985.
The Colosseum - Rome, Italy
 The Colosseum or Coliseum (/kɒləˈsiːəm/ kol-ə-see-əm), also known as the Flavian
Amphitheatre (Latin: Amphitheatrum Flavium; Italian: Anfiteatro Flavio
[aŋfiteˈaːtro ˈflaːvjo] or Colosseo [kolosˈsɛːo]), is an oval amphitheatre in the centre
of the city of Rome, Italy. Built of concrete and sand, it is the largest amphitheatre
ever built. The Colosseum is situated just east of the Roman Forum. Construction
began under the emperor Vespasian in AD 72, and was completed in AD 80 under
his successor and heir Titus.Further modifications were made during the reign of
Domitian (81–96). These three emperors are known as the Flavian dynasty, and
the amphitheatre was named in Latin for its association with their family name
Chichen Itza - Yucatán, Mexico
Chichén Itzá is a world-famous complex of Mayan
ruins on Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula. A massive
step pyramid known as El Castillo dominates the
6.5-sq.-km. ancient city, which thrived from around
600 A.D. to the 1200s. Graphic stone carvings
survive at structures like the ball court, Temple of
the Warriors and the Wall of the Skulls. Nightly
sound-and-light shows illuminate the buildings'
sophisticated geometry.
Machu Picchu - Cuzco Region, Peru
Machu Picchu is an Incan citadel set high in the
Andes Mountains in Peru, above the Urubamba
River valley. Built in the 15th century and later
abandoned, it’s renowned for its sophisticated dry-
stone walls that fuse huge blocks without the use
of mortar, intriguing buildings that play on
astronomical alignments and panoramic views. Its
exact former use remains a mystery
Taj Mahal - Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India
 The Taj Mahal meaning Crown of the Palace is an ivory-white marble mausoleum
on the south bank of the Yamuna river in the Indian city of Agra. It was
commissioned in 1632 by the Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan (reigned 1628–1658),
to house the tomb of his favourite wife, Mumtaz Mahal. The tomb is the
centrepiece of a 17-hectare (42-acre) complex, which includes a mosque and a
guest house, and is set in formal gardens bounded on three sides by a crenellated
wall.
