2. Taj Mahal
An immense mausoleum of white marble, built in Agra
between 1631 and 1648 by Shah Jahan in memory of his
favourite wife of the Mughal emperor. The Taj Mahal is the
jewel of Muslim art in India and one of the universally
admired masterpieces of the world's heritage.

3. Machu Picchu
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.

4. The Great Wall Of China
The Great Wall of China is a series of fortifications that
were built across the historical northern borders of ancient
Chinese states and Imperial China as protection against
various nomadic groups from the Eurasian Steppe.

This famous Mayan site may not be entirely Mayan. Chichen
Itza gets its name from a cenote nearby. The main pyramid
nests multiple smaller pyramids inside it. Monuments of
Chichen Itza were astronomically aligned. The Serpent God,
Kukulkan descends on the pyramid twice every year.

6. The Colosseum

city of Rome, Italy, just east of the Roman Forum. It is the
largest ancient amphitheatre ever built, and is still the
largest standing amphitheatre in the world today, despite
its age.

7. Petra
Petra is a famous archaeological site in Jordan's
southwestern desert. Dating to around 300 B.C., it was the
capital of the Nabatean Kingdom. Accessed via a narrow
canyon called Al Siq, it contains tombs and temples carved
into pink sandstone cliffs, earning its nickname, the "Rose
City."
