The original list of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World was created by ancient Greek tourists to highlight the most impressive structures they encountered along the eastern Mediterranean. The number seven was chosen because it had special symbolic meaning. The wonders on the list were the Great Pyramid of Giza, Hanging Gardens of Babylon, Statue of Zeus at Olympia, Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, Mausoleum at Halicarnassus, Colossus of Rhodes, and Lighthouse of Alexandria - all built between around 2600 BC and 280 BC. Most have since been destroyed. A modern list of new seven wonders was created in 2001.
