New 7 wonders of the World
This is a classic, a reminder, but it is still beautiful. The new seven wonders of the world have been designated to a vote organized by the New Seven Wonders Foundation , and the results were announced July 7, 2007 in Lisbon.
So as you say at the outset, this is a true list of choices offered to the jury of architects from all backgrounds, and chaired by Federico Mayor , former president of the UNESCO . Among this list were 21 sites or buildings located in 21 countries on all continents .
ON WHAT CRITERIA?
Yes, because you have to make choices, however difficult they may be. The judging criteria included aesthetics, but also the architectural feat, or historical relevance. Harsh, because many countries offered fifty choice temples and palaces spread their territory. In the end, the new seven wonders of the world chosen are obviously those who received the most votes, and are supposed to represent a wide range of cultures and eras.
Thus, we find wonders dating back to antiquity, others the 20th century. All these monuments have a sacred function or purely aesthetic. Anyway we love you, so I suggest you (re) discover these little wonders ... for fun:
