Bits and pieces have been posted before, but here's all of them in one package.

The Seven Wonders of the...

Ancient World: Colossus of Rhodes | Hanging Gardens of Babylon | Mausoleum of Halicarnassus | Pharos of Alexandria | Pyramids of Giza | Statue of Zeus | Temple of Artemis

Medieval World: Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa | Colosseum | Great Wall of China | Hagia Sophia | Leaning Tower of Pisa | Porcelain Tower of Nanjing | Stonehenge

Natural World: Grand Canyon | Great Barrier Reef | Harbor of Rio de Janeiro | Mount Everest | Northern Lights | Paricutín Volcano | Victoria Falls

Undersea World: Belize Barrier Reef | Deep-Sea Vents | Galapagos Islands | Great Barrier Reef | Lake Baikal | Northern Red Sea | Palau

Modern World: Channel Tunnel | CN Tower | Empire State Building | Golden Gate Bridge | Itaipu Dam | Delta Works | Panama Canal

And the New Seven Wonders: Great Wall of China | Potala Palace | Taj Mahal | Roman Colosseum | El Castillo | Moai | Leaning Tower of Pisa

Some duplicates in there, I know. But I'm a completist like that.

Inky,
I am tempted to say "Get a Life"... but then you might stop showering us with things like this. So instead, I will simply say, "This is a keeper" and keep up the wonderfully diverse posts.


P. S. And for those in the know... I am now switching to "2 EC" and will be busy for the next couple of hours.

Hey! I have a life! It's right ... er.

Wait. No, I'm sure I had a life. It was around here somewhere.

Ah. Now I remember. I met the Eighth Wonder.

Brilliant post! Deserves some stars and a bit more accolade if you ask me.

Never trust a man who, when left alone in a room with a tea cosy, doesn't try it on.

Grrrrreat!

But what is Stonehenge doing under 'Medieval World'? It's 4,500 years old.
