In the 3rd century BC, the Chief Librarian
of the Library in Alexandria compiled
a list of "Wonders of
the World," but the list
we go by today was compiled during
the Middle Ages.
By the time the list was compiled,
many of the Wonders had been reduced
to rubble, but they live on
in legend all the same.
Two of the Wonders are in Aegean
Turkey:
Temple
of Artemis at Ephesus:
Mausoleum of Halicarnassus (Bodrum)
The others are:
Great Pyramid at Giza (Egypt)
Colossus of Rhodes (Greece)
Lighthouse (Pharos) of Alexandria (Egypt)
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon (Iraq)
