I voted for:
Machu Picchu
Great Wall of China
Stonehenge
The Acropolis
Easter Island Statues
Hagia Sophia
Pyramids of Giza


Good choices I think. My 7th would've been The Alhambra.

Angkor-I've always just loved that place. The look alone sets my imagination going

The Colosseum - For a thousand reasons, that have already been said.

Stonehenge-how anyone can't consider that a wonder of any age is beyond me.

Petra-Again it appeals to my imagination and sense of granduer.

Pyramids of Giza - Same reason as the colosseum

Kremlin/St Basil-The look the srchitecture. Whether as a symbol of traditional russian czars, or as the embodiment of Communist Russia, few places or buildings evoke such instant recognition.

Easter Island Statues-much like stonhenge, these figures give us an understanding of what can be accomplished with very little.

Now THAT, folks, is a true architectural masterpiece of beauty, grace and refinement...brings tears to my eyes.
