After over 2,000 years, it was about time to update the list! In this first truly global poll, everyone will be able to vote — either by Internet, or with their mobile phone — for their own pick of seven architectural wonders of the world, from the Incan mountaintop city Machu Picchu in Peru, to the rose-red desert city of Petra in Jordan, to Easter Island’s mysterious statues, to India’s Taj Mahal, and many more.

What are the greatest architectural achievements in history? Rome’s Colosseum? The Great Wall of China? The Pyramids of Giza?

That’s what millions of people are asking themselves as they vote in the largest global poll ever conducted, an attempt to recast ancient history by ranking the top architectural marvels as the “new” seven wonders of the world.
