What were the Seven Wonders Of The World?

Question

And I mean the actual seven wonders of the world that people refer to. I think the pyramids are one. What are the others and are they still standing? i don't think they are but can someone confirm? Thanks

Answer 1

The seven wonders of the (ancient) world were
The Pyramids of Giza
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon
The Temple of Artemis
The Statue of Zeus
The Mausoleum of Maussollos
The Colossus of Rhodes and
The Lighthouse of Alexandria

You are right the pyramids are the only ones still standing. All the rest of them were reportedly destroyed by earthquakes, except for the Temple of Artemis and the Zeus Statue, which were both destroyed by fire.
Hope this helps!
