Housepets Forum's Official 7 Man-Made Wonders of the World

Post by YingBlanc »

Basically another thread born from the chat thread. I have thought for ages what would you lot say are the 7 Wonders of the World are so I made this. I will make 3 threads when the time comes for it, this thread is just signing your personal wonders up. I will edit the list when it comes to it then once we get at least 35 wonders to start I will ask this thread to be closed and make another for voting your top 14 then after that your top 7 Wonders. Only Man-Made wonders will be accepted this time around

To sign it up all you need to do is to say what is it, where it is and throwing in a picture as well. Like this
Name: Petra

Moment ago I've just recall one thing - add to the rules of this, that you can't vote for thing which you propose, because some people (for example me :P ) want to vote for something which they propose here.

Only one of the original seven wonders still stands, so I think it deserves to be on the list just for that distinction...

T^he Great Pyramids, Giza, Egypt:
Image

Also, Mammoth Caves, Kentucky, USA: Longest known cave system in the world.
Image

And I guess The Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, France should be in there somewhere...
Image


And also The Nazca Lines, just because of their sheer size and improbability. They are on the Nazca Desert in Peru.

Thanks for the contributions, I forgot to mention it's only Man Made wonders for now I'll add that to the description.

You know the Taj Mahal is "haunted" by the Raj who built it for his wife and that there was originally going to be another one but black personally for him.

it's not this actually exists but it's deadly for humans without the suit on. And it's also natural so sorry but you'll have to wait for the NATURAL 7 wonders of the World after this please.

maybe Copper but I'd like to do it one after the other like the original 7 Wonders but if you want it I'll create the Natural Wonders one as well.
