Seven Wonders
Classical architectural marvels
The Seven Wonders are lists of remarkable structures or achievements, most famously the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World—monuments including the Great Pyramid of Giza and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.
Modern lists designate natural wonders, new wonders chosen by popular vote, or wonders of particular domains: the seven wonders of the modern world.
The phrase suggests supreme examples of human or natural achievement.
