]]>We aren’t talking about the seven wonders of the ancient world, which includes landmarks you can no longer visit. We’re talking about places you can literally see today—as long as you have enough time and money. Here are the seven wonders:
The Taj Mahal was made as a tribute of love by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan for his deceased wife Mumtaz Mahal. Incidentally, the site itself is just as beautiful as the original reason it was made.
It’s not hard to see why this 15th-century Inca citadel would be a fun place to visit. The scenery is just breathtaking, and its polished dry-stone walls are truly impressive.
A statue of Jesus Christ made of reinforced concrete and soapstone, it’s a breathtaking work of art that one can appreciate even if they aren’t necessarily religious.
You can choose to either focus on or ignore the Colosseum’s fascinating, albeit barbaric history—and in the process appreciate how majestic it is.
This archaeological site was built by the Mayans and is the most visited location in Mexico. Go there to learn more about its fascinating history.
Also called “Rose City” due to its gorgeous color, this archeological city can be explored after entering a 1.2 kilometer-long gorge.
There are few places on earth that are quite as jaw-dropping as the Great Wall of China. As the name suggests, the wall extends a whopping 13,170 miles.

]]>One of the most popular ways to take photos with this statue is copying its pose by outstretching both of your arms. Whether you’re posing with your face or your back facing the camera, you can’t go wrong with this shot, and it’s truly a timeless classic.
One of the biggest mistakes people make while taking a photos here is standing directly in front of the statue and thinking it’s the best spot to take the picture. Get a little bit more creative with your shots, and step away from the statue while looking for a perfect angle.
Christ the Redeemer is one of Rio’s busiest attractions and that makes it difficult to take full-body shot images. If you want the entire statue and no other people in your frame, you’ll only be able to fit your face and upper body in, so find a way to work with that.

]]>Several designs were proposed before the masterminds behind this statue settled for the current design. Originally, it was supposed to be holding a globe and a Christian cross rather than having two open arms.
The outer shell of this statue is covered with six million soapstone tiles. Legend has it that the workers wrote tiny notes on their back, covering the statue with countless hidden messages.
This statue is instantly recognizable thanks to its light shade, but this may change in the future. The light-colored stone used during its construction is hard to get by, and the monument will get gradually darker with each renovation.
Christ the Redeemer’s mountaintop position makes it extremely exposed to lightning strikes. It tends to get hit three to six times a year, and one of its thumbs even ended up being broken when lighting struck in 2014.
