The Seven Wonders of the World captured the human imagination almost 2,500 years ago, and we have been mesmerized ever since by extraordinary achievements. Although the ancient wonders are the best known, many such lists have been compiled, some of which include the even more marvelous works of nature. In this lavishly illustrated volume, the National Geographic Society celebrates nearly three dozen wonders -- the most amazing sights (and sites) in the world.

From the Pyramids of Giza and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon to the Panama Canal and the Golden Gate Bridge, here are the most impressive creations ever imagined and constructed. Here, too, are the most awesome features of nature -- the Himalaya in Asia, the Great Barrier Reef of Australia, the mist-shrouded Victoria Falls in Africa -- and much more, captured in nearly 200 stunning photographs and paintings.

Exploring 35 natural and man-made marvels, from the breathtaking summit of the Himalaya's Mount Everest to the depths of the Mid-Ocean Ridge, from the towering beacon of the Pharos of Alexandria to the skyscraping spire of Toronto's CN Tower, this fascinating book sweeps across recorded history and around the world to create a unique celebration of The Wonders of the World.
