China- Great Wall of China
One of the greatest wonders of the world, was enlisted in the World Heritage by UNESCO in 1987. Just like a gigantic dragon, the Great Wall winds up and down across deserts, grasslands, mountains and plateaus stretching approximately 6,700 kilometers (4,163 miles ) from east to west of China.

Italy- Leaning Tower of Pisa
The Tower of Pisa is the bell tower of the Cathedral. Its construction began in the august of 1173 and continued (with two long interruptions) for about two hundred years, in full fidelity to the original project, whose architect is still uncertain

France- The Eiffel Tower

Epygt- The Pyramids of Egypt

India- The Taj Mahal
For centuries, the Taj Mahal has inspired poets, painters and musicians who have tried to capture its elusive magic in words, colours and music. The Taj Mahal is indeed a flawless architectural creation

U.S.A.- The Statue of Liberty
The Statue of Liberty National Monument officially celebrated her 100th birthday on October 28, 1986. The people of France gave the Statue to the people of the United States over one hundred years ago in recognition of the friendship established during the American Revolution. Over the years, the Statue of Liberty has grown to include freedom and democracy as well as this international friendship

Greece, The Hanging Gardens of Babylon
From 1792-1750 BC, the Babylonian kingdom flourished under the rule of a famous King, Hammurabi but it was not until the reign of Naboplashar (625-605 BC) of the Neo-Babylonian dynasty that the Mesopotamian civilization reached its ultimate glory. His son, Nebuchadnezzar II (604-562 BC) is credited for building the legendary Hanging Gardens. It is said that the Gardens were built by Nebuchadnezzar to please his wife or concubine who had been "brought up in Media and had a passion for mountain surroundings". </DIV>
