The choices will be announced in 07/07/07
Tough choices - didn't Yahoo have something like this a few months back?
Well, I'd pick the following:
1. Petra 2. The Pyramids 3. The Acropolis 4. Angor Wat 5. Machu Picchu 6. the Taj Mahal 7. Stonehenge
My reasoning: 1. I've picked mostly the "older" sites because I'm more impressed by the ability of people with less technical knowledge (and help) to build what they did. 2. I've seen all the siites I picked, except for Angor Wat (and I've seen many of the sites I didn't pick) 3. Some of the sites I picked have "hidden qualities" beyond their impressive construction (e.g. the Pyramids, Stonehenge, etc. ) in that they are also very sophisticated archeo-astrological instruments.
By the way, I'd like to add one more:
