FIVE WONDERS OF THE MODERN WORLD
Sure you've heard a lot about the 7 wonders of the world, The Gardens of Babylon, The Statue of Zeus, The Colossus of Rome, The Pyramids of Egypt, The Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, The Temple of Ephesus and The Lighthouse of Alexandria, for those seven wonders are seven of the ancient world, we will not talk about this in this post, but we will talk about the 5 wonders of the modern world, here it goes.
1. Petra Jordania
Petra in a city in Jordan which was inhabited about 10,000 years BC, it was home to an approximate 3,000 people and had a unique hydraulic system and is considered lost until its discovery in the 19th century
2. Machu Pichu Peru
This is another well-known city located in Peru, this small city is located about 2350 meters above sea level, was built by the Incas and have not yet been able to reveal all the mysteries that it has.
3. Cristo Redentor Brasil
This statue also known as the Christ of Corcobado, is part of the 7 new wonders of the world although this post we are only seeing 5 of them. It is located in Brazil in the city of Janeiro, this statue represents Jesus of Nazareth and was placed in 1931 in commemoration of the centennial of Brazilian independence.
4. Coliseum Romano Italia
Without a doubt it could not be missed, the Roman Colosseum located in Italy, was built in the first century with the intention of entertaining the Roman people with the deaths of gladiators or executions of all those who were against the Roman beliefs of the time.
5. La Muralla China
I do not have to say where it is located? This incredible structure is about 8,851 km long and was built in the 5th century, it is a world heritage site. It is the greatest modern wonder today, not only because of its length but because it is the construction that has more than one million workers who died building it since it took about 200 years to be completed.
I think the best one is the Chinese wall ;)
