The Seven Wonders of the World
The Seven Wonders of the World is a honorary list of some of the most awe-inspiring human-made creations throughout time. This list has changed over time, and in 2007 the new list of the Seven Wonders of the World was announced: the Great Wall of China, Chichén Itzá, Petra, Machu Picchu, Christ the Redeemer, the Colosseum, and Taj Mahal. Dr. Rachel Ernst will explore what makes the Wonders of the World so exceptional and will discuss the changes over time.
