I agree but those were wonders of a very little world. Most of the planet was not wide known. Just Europe and around it. Now you have entire Asia, America, etc..

So now you have Machu Picchu, Teotihuacan, the Great Wall, etc..

I agree about the originals truely being wonders, and they will remain the "ancient" seven wonders, but unfortunately, except for the pyramids, they were all destroyed centuries ago.

The pyramids should be included regardless of the fact they are among the original ancient wonders. I also chose Stonehenge, the statues at Easter Island, The Great Wall of China, The Acropolis, The Collosseum and the Machu Picchu.
