[b]The Great Pyramid of Giza
It is the one and only Ancient Wonder which does not require a
description by early historians and poets. It is the one and only
Ancient Wonder that does not need speculations concerning its
appearance, size, and shape. It is the oldest, yet it is the only
surviving of the Seven Ancient Wonders. It is the Great Pyramid of
Giza.
The Hanging Gardens of
Babylon
Some stories indicate the Hanging Gardens towered hundreds of feet
into the air, but archaeological explorations indicate a more
modest, but still impressive, height.
The Statue of Zeus at
Olympia
This is a statue of the God in whose honor the Ancient Olympic
games were held. It was located on the land that gave its very name
to the Olympics. At the time of the games, wars stopped, and
athletes came from Asia Minor, Syria, Egypt, and Sicily to
celebrate the Olympics and to worship their king of Gods:
Zeus.
The Colossus of Rhodes
The island of Rhodes was an important economic centre in the
ancient world. It is located off the southwestern tip of Asia Minor
where the Aegean Sea meets the Mediterranean. The capitol city,
also named Rhodes, was built in 408 B.C
The Temple of Artemis at
Ephesus
Eight hundred years after its destruction, the magnificent Temple
of Artemis at Ephesus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient
World, had been completely forgotten by the people of the town that
had once held it in such pride.
The Mausoleum at
Halicarnassus
The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus is the burial place of an ancient
king. Yet the Mausoleum is different - so different from the
Pyramid that it earned its reputation - and a spot within the list
- for other reasons. Geographically, it is closer to the Temple of
Artemis... And it was the beauty of the tomb rather than its size
that fascinated its visitors for years.
The Great Pharos Lighthouse
Of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, only one had a practical
use in addition to its architectural elegance: The Lighthouse of
Alexandria. For sailors, it ensured a safe return to the Great
Harbor. For architects, it meant even more: it was the tallest
building on Earth. And for scientists, it was the mysterious mirror
that fascinated them most... The mirror which reflection could be
seen more than 50 km (35 miles) off-shore.
