The only totally intact remaining 7 wonders of the ancient world is in a suburb of Cairo, Egypt: The Great Pyramid at Giza.

However, remnants of the others can be found here-
1. The Lighthouse of Alexandria, Alexandria, Egypt (you can see bricks from it in the Mediterreanean and there is an Islamic Citadel that was made from parts of it at the place where it was built).
2. The Mausolleum at Halikarnassos, Bodrum, Turkey (it is no longer standing, however one of the best underwater archaeological museums is in the castle which used the material to build it from, not to mention Bodrum is gorgeous and a party center of modern Turkey)
3. The Temple of Artemis, Ephesus, Turkey (you can see a hoopty-rig recreated pillar of this, however the ancient city of Ephesus is nearby and in terrific condition and worth the visit)
4. Hanging Gardens of Babylon - Baghdad, Iraq (not at all standing and probably not a good idea to visit right now)
5. Collosos of Rhodes, Greece (Rhodes is a Greek island, I haven't been there but the statue fell in an earthquake)
6. Statue of Zeus at Olympia, Greece

The Great Pyramid of Giza is in Egypt
Hanging Gardens, Babylon (destroyed)
Temple of Artemis, Ephesus (destroyed)
Statue of Zeus, Olympia (destroyed)
Mausoleum of Maussolos, Halicarnassus (destroyed)
The Colossus, Rhodes (destroyed)
The Great Lighthouse, Alexandria (destroyed)

Those are the 7 wonders of the Antique world, at least. The list is pretty debated though, I seem to recall the Great Library of Alexandria being included once (though that would hardly be politcally correct, having two wonders, now would it?)

There are several different sets of the 7 wonders of the world. If you want the ancient list it is as follows:

The Great Pyramid of Giza
Location: At the city of Giza, a necropolis of ancient Memphis, and today part of Greater Cairo, Egypt.

The Hanging Gardens of Babylon
Location: On the east bank of the River Euphrates, about 50 km south of Baghdad, Iraq.

The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
Location: The ancient city of Ephesus near the modern town of Selcuk, about 50 km south of Izmir (Smyrna) in Turkey.

The Statue of Zeus at Olympia
Location: At the ancient town of Olympia, on the west coast of modern Greece, about 150 km west of Athens.

The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
Location: In the city of Bodrum (f.k.a. Halicarnassus) on the Aegean Sea, in south-west Turkey.

The Colossus of Rhodes
Location: At the entrance of the harbor of the Mediterranean island of Rhodes in Greece.

The Pharos of Alexandria
Location: On the ancient island of Pharos, now a promontory within the city of Alexandria in Egypt.
