The votes have been counted. And the New 7 Wonders of the World are: Machu Picchu (pictured); The Great Wall of China; The Taj Mahal; The Roman Colloseum; Petra (Jordan); Chichen Itza (Mexico); Christ Redeemer Statue (Brazil).
No Stonehenge! No Ankor Wat! Then again, no list of seven would suit everyone's preferences.
These are all "places" and works of architecture. But how about the Seven
Real Wonders of the Modern World? Like, f'rinstance, the Internet? What would be on your list?
