the top ten miracles/wonders of the world

The Great Wall of China is a series of stone and earthen fortifications in northern China, built originally to protect the northern borders of the Chinese Empire against intrusions by various nomadic groups. Several walls have been built since the 5th century BC that are referred to collectively as the Great Wall, which has been rebuilt and maintained from the 5th century BC through the 16th century. One of the most famous is the wall built between 220–206 BC by the first Emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang. Little of that wall remains; the majority of the existing wall was built during the Ming Dynasty.The Great Wall stretches from Shanhaiguan in the east, to Lop Nur in the west, along an arc that roughly delineates the southern edge of Inner Mongolia. The most comprehensive archaeological survey, using advanced technologies, has concluded that the entire Great Wall, with all of its branches, stretches for 8,851.8 km (5,500.3 mi). This is made up of 6,259.6 km (3,889.5 mi) sections of actual wall, 359.7 km (223.5 mi) of trenches and 2,232.5 km (1,387.2 mi) of natural defensive barriers such as hills and riversThe Egyptian pyramids are ancient pyramid-shaped masonry structures located in Egypt.There are 138 pyramids discovered in Egypt as of 2008. Most were built as tombs for the country's Pharaohs and their consorts during the Old and Middle Kingdom periods.The earliest known Egyptian pyramids are found at Saqqara, northwest of Memphis. The earliest among these is the Pyramid of Djoser (constructed 2630 BCE–2611 BCE) which was built during the third dynasty. This pyramid and its surrounding complex were designed by the architect Imhotep, and are generally considered to be the world's oldest monumental structures constructed of dressed masonry[citation needed].The most famous Egyptian pyramids are those found at Giza, on the outskirts of Cairo. Several of the Giza pyramids are counted among the largest structures ever built.The Pyramid of Khufu at Giza is the largest Egyptian pyramid. It is the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still in existence.The Terracotta Army (simplified Chinese: 兵马俑; traditional Chinese: 兵马俑; pinyin: bīngmǎ yǒng; literally "soldier and horse funerary statues") or the "Terra Cotta Warriors and Horses", is a collection of terracotta sculptures depicting the armies of Qin Shi Huang, the first Emperor of China.The figures, dating from 210 BC, were discovered in 1974 by some local farmers in Lintong District, Xi'an, Shaanxi province, near the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor (Chinese: 秦始皇陵; pinyin: Qín Shǐhuáng Ling).The figures vary in height, according to their roles, with the tallest being the generals. The figures include warriors, chariots, horses, officials, acrobats, strongmen and musicians. Current estimates are that in the three pits containing the Terracotta Army there were over 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses and 150 cavalry horses, the majority of which are still buried in the pits

不是7大么the ten wonders in the world

1、埃及金字塔 pyramids of Egypt金字塔是古代埃及国王为自己修建的陵墓。埃及的吉札金字塔被誉为古代世界七大奇迹之一。埃及共发现金字塔八十座，其中最壮观的一座金字塔是在公元前2600年左右建成的吉札金字塔，全部都是由人工建成。古代埃及人如何把坎石块雕薹刻及砌成陵墓，陵墓内部的信道和陵室的布局宛如迷宫，古代埃及人是用甚么方法设计它呢？ 2、宙斯神像 the statue of Zeus宙斯是希腊众神之神，为表崇拜而兴建的宙斯神像是当时世上最大的室内雕像。遗址位于希腊西岸奥林比亚的古城中。宙斯神殿建于公元前470年，于公元前456年完工，由建筑师Libon设计，宙斯神像则由雕刻家Pheidias负责。神殿是以表面铺上灰泥的石灰岩建成，殿顶则使用大理石兴建而成，神殿共由三十四条约高17米的科林斯式支柱支撑着，神殿的面积达41.1米乘107.75米。 3、法洛斯灯塔 The Lighthouse of Alexandria /the Pharos Lighthouse位置：在埃及的亚历山卓港附近的法洛斯岛上。在亚历山大大帝死后不久，他的手下之一Ptolemy Soter便称霸埃及，并建都于亚历山卓，有鉴于亚历山卓港附近的海道十分危险，Ptolemy Soter便下令由建筑师Sostratus及亚历山卓图书馆合作兴建法洛斯灯塔，灯塔于公元前290年竣工。 4、巴比伦空中花园 Babylon Hanging Garden一般相信空中花园是由Nebuchadnezzar王(公元前604-公元前562)为了安慰患上思乡病的王妃安美依迪丝，仿照王妃在山上的故乡而兴建了空中花园。与罗得斯岛巨像一样，考古学家至今都未能找到空中花园的遗迹，事实上，不少在自己著作中提到空中花园的古人也只是从别人口中听回来，并没有真的看过，到底空中花园是否纯粹传说呢？ 5、阿提密斯神殿 Temple of Artemis阿提密斯是希腊的狩猎女神，阿拉伯人称她Lat，埃及人称她依西斯，而罗马人则称她为戴安娜，在古代的希腊阿提密丝女神深受敬仰，因此兴建了七大奇观之一阿提密丝神殿。提密斯神殿遗址估计位于古城爱菲索斯中，约在土耳其的Izmir南面50公里。 6、罗得斯岛巨像 The Colossus of Rhodes罗得斯岛巨像是七大奇观中最神秘的一个，因为它只在短短五十六年间便倒下了，考古学家甚至连它的确实位置及外观都未能确定。罗得斯岛巨像位于希腊罗得斯岛通往地中海的港口。在公元前305年罗得斯岛联邦和马耳他的安帝哥尼斯发生了一场战争，战胜的罗得斯岛联邦得到大批战利品，为了记念这场胜仗，他们便变卖战利品来建造罗得斯岛巨像。 7、毛索洛斯墓庙 the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus ((King Mausolos' grave)毛索洛斯墓庙位于哈利卡纳素斯，在土耳其的西南方，底部建筑为长方形，面积是40米(120)乘30米(100)，高45米(140)，其中墩座墙高20米，柱高12米，金字塔高7米，最顶部的马车雕像高6米建筑物被墩座墙围住，旁边以石像作装饰.顶部的雕像是四只马拉着一架古代双辆战车.此墓庙著名之处除了它的建筑外，还有那些雕塑.毛索洛斯墓庙的雕塑由四名著名的雕刻家Bryaxis， Leochares， Scopas，和 Timotheus制造，每人负责墓庙的其中一边。8、中国万里长城 the Great Wall长城是有史以来唯一在太空中可见到的三度空间建筑物。以现代科技来修筑都不容易，而我国竟能建筑于两千多年前的春秋战国时代，实在难得。长城的建材系就地取材，各地颇不相同。汉代以泥和芦苇修筑长城。长城体积也各不相同，以居庸关一带来说，高约8.5公尺，下部宽8.5公尺，上部宽约5公尺。每隔70～100公尺有一堡寨(相当于城楼)，高约12.3公尺，多数堡寨是一重的，要害之地则置两、三重。 9、法洛斯灯塔外传之亚历山卓港 Alexandria公元前 332年，马其顿帝国的亚历山大大帝于埃及尼罗河口西面建立一个古城--亚历山卓，亚历山大大帝死后，埃及托勒密王朝开始兴起，亚历山卓便成为托勒密王朝的首都并因此而繁荣起来，再加上亚历山卓位于亚洲，非洲及欧洲三个洲的接合位置，亦能通往尼罗河及地中海的港口，可以想象到亚历山卓是如何繁荣，世界的通商是如何发达，而且亚历山卓内的法洛斯岛更拥有世界七大奇观之一的法洛斯灯塔照耀着港口。 10、秦始皇兵马俑 the Terra-cotta Warriors 1974年，中国考古工作者把沉睡千年的7000多件陶捅发掘出土，被认为是古代的奇迹，是本世纪最壮观的考古发现。秦兵马俑，无论在数量上、质量上，还是在考古发现上，都是世界上所罕见，它对于深入研究公元前二世纪秦代的军事、政治、经济、文化、科学和艺术等提供了极为珍贵的实物材料。它既是中国人民的艺术珍品，又是世界人民的共同文化遗产。它可以同埃及金字塔和古希腊雕塑相媲美，公认它是世界人类文化的宝贵财富。 希望我的回答对你有所帮助~望采纳~O(∩_∩)O~
