The Great Pyramid of Khufu at Giza (c. 2551—2470 BC), one of humankind's greatest architectural achievements and the tallest building in the world for more than four thousand years.

The Hanging Gardens (c. 810—560 BC), a series of extensive and ornate landscaped terraces in northern Iraq. Archaeologists have searched the ruins of Babylon for the fabled Hanging Gardens for decades, yet have found almost nothing.

The Statue of Zeus at Olympia (c. 430 BC), a forty-foot tall gold and ivory statue that was the most celebrated artistic work on mainland Greece. The statue presided over the early Olympic Games.

The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus (c. 4th century BC), a Greek temple famous for its imposing size and magnificent sculpture, burned down by a madman who wanted to immortalize his name in the 4th century BC.

The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus (c. 352 BC), the 140-foot high monumental tomb of the Anatolian king Mausolus, completed by his wife—who was also his sister.

The Colossus of Helios at Rhodes (c. 290 BC), a huge bronze statue, comparable in size to the Statue of Liberty, built on the island of Rhodes to commemorate a military victory. Toppled by an earthquake, its ruins were a major tourist attraction for nearly 900 years.

The Pharos of Alexandria (c. 280 BC), the largest and most famous lighthouse of the ancient world, built for a Greek king ruling Egypt. The first true high-rise building in the history of architecture.

I totally agree with "gonamuk", except I'd substitute the Palm Islands in Dubai and the Tokyo (or Osaka?) man-made airport runway (in the ocean) for "Mt Rushmore".
