Wonders of the World




The new 7 wonders of the world has been chosen last saturday and I have the previledge to watch it live on tv that day as it was being held here in Lisbon, Portugal (a country where i live for almost 18 yrs now). The organizers did a very impressive presentation of the program, once again Lisbon manage to show its class in organizing big events as it did in the Euro 2004 football championship.
It was said that 100 million people voted in the internet for the 7 wonders of their choice but for me all 20 finalist are all deserving as much as the others. The world is full of many wonders that is why it is very dificult for me to choice only 7 ....I did´nt cast my vote but i watch the program with enthusiam to know what the people around the world have chosen...

The New 7 Wonders of the World are the following:

1, The Great Wall of China
2, Machu Pichu, Peru
3, Petra of Jordan
4, Chichen Itza of Mexico
5, The Roman Colloseum of Italy
6, The Taj Mahal of India
7, The Christ Redeemer of Brazil

Congratulations to the New 7 Wonders Of the World!!!
