The Seven Wonders of the World is a widely known list of seven popular sites of classical antiquity.

The earliest known version of the list was compiled in the 2nd century BC by Antipater of Sidon. It only includes

works located around the Mediterranean rim where sightseers could typically travel safely.

Of these wonders, the only one that has survived to the present day is the Great Pyramid of Giza. The existence of

the Hanging Gardens has not been definitively proven. Records show that the other five wonders were destroyed

by natural disasters.
