I also apparently forgot how to spell Colosseum (Coliseum is the name of a case I am doing a lot of work in . . . doh!)</p> <p>@sunny: It is not possible to grasp the magnitude of Versailles through photographs . . . although I imagine that is true of many of these structures! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/man-made-wonders-of-the-world#post-758941 Fri, 03 May 2013 05:37:02 +0000 shopaholic 758941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've seen some of the coolest manmade wonders ( Angkor Wat, Macchu Picchu, The Great Wall). I've loved visiting each one! But I have to say Angkor Way is pretty amazing! @MediaNaranja: @sunny: - I always tell people it's worth it to see!</p> <p>I definitely want to see The Pyramids and Easter Island for some crazy manmade wonders! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/man-made-wonders-of-the-world#post-758937 Fri, 03 May 2013 05:04:24 +0000 Ree723 758937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MediaNaranja: Awesome, you can be our tour guide! :-) DH has no real desire to go to South America (not that he doesn't want to go, but there are other places in the world that are higher on his list), so @sunny: yep, you can come with and I'll leave DH home with LO! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/man-made-wonders-of-the-world#post-758926 Fri, 03 May 2013 04:37:27 +0000 MediaNaranja 758926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ree723: @sunny: the salt flats are amazing! Bolivia is such an incredible place in general. I lived there for a year and every day dream of going back! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/man-made-wonders-of-the-world#post-758894 Fri, 03 May 2013 01:05:26 +0000 sunny 758894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ree723: All I can say is.... can I come with!?!!?! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/man-made-wonders-of-the-world#post-758891 Fri, 03 May 2013 00:57:58 +0000 Ree723 758891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sunny: I know, I'm dying to get there!!! South America and Antarctica are the only continents I haven't been to yet and my dream vacation is to start in Bolivia, see the salt flats, travel down through Chile and end up at Ushuaia, hop on a ship to cross the Drake Passage and head into Antarctica, see the penguins up close on zodiac boats, then upon return to Ushuaia, travel up through Patagonia to Buenos Aires via Las Pampas where I plan on having the world's best steak and an outstanding glass of red wine.</p> <p>Clearly I haven't put any thought into this! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/man-made-wonders-of-the-world#post-758887 Fri, 03 May 2013 00:45:14 +0000 sunny 758887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd like to see the imperial palaces in China and Angkor Wat. I'm super fortunate and I've already seen a bunch of ones listed! My favorites are probably Versailles and Machu Picchu.</p> <p>@Ree723: the salt flats are on my list too! Someone showed me a YouTube video and I had my mouth hanging open! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/man-made-wonders-of-the-world#post-758885 Fri, 03 May 2013 00:42:08 +0000 Ree723 758885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've travelled a lot and there are some pretty amazing places in the world! The Great Wall of China is damn impressive (and super arduous to climb!); the Acropolis in Greece is also pretty cool but nowhere near as impressive as the library at Ephesus in Turkey. The Roman Colosseum is well worth a visit, and the temples of Thailand are pretty special too, but the buildings in Moscow and St Petersburg (Hermitage, St Basil's, Winter Palace) are even more amazing. </p> <p>It's hard to pick a man made structure as I tend to be drawn to natural wonders (Victoria Falls, Patagonia, Okavango Delta, Uyuni Salt Flats and Lake Baikal are all tops on my list of places to visit), but for man made, I would probably say the Trans-Mongolian Railway would be tops on my list, followed by Taj Mahal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/man-made-wonders-of-the-world#post-758639 Thu, 02 May 2013 21:20:16 +0000 MediaNaranja 758639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Angkor Wat!<br /> Next choice would be Easter Island, because when else would I go there? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/man-made-wonders-of-the-world#post-758627 Thu, 02 May 2013 21:16:52 +0000 Mrs. Pen 758627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: oooh yes the opera house! I want to go to Australia for sure. I do want to go to Thailand badly but to ride elephants ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/man-made-wonders-of-the-world#post-758617 Thu, 02 May 2013 21:14:12 +0000 MsLipGloss 758617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The Sydney Opera House (to get to Australia!) and probably the Roman Coliseum or the Greek Acropolis. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/man-made-wonders-of-the-world#post-758610 Thu, 02 May 2013 21:10:00 +0000 808love 758610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd like to see the Eiffel Tower one day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/man-made-wonders-of-the-world#post-758598 Thu, 02 May 2013 21:05:03 +0000 Mrs. Pen 758598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A friend of mine just posted this question to fb:<br /> "You have just won an all expenses paid trip to see any manmade monument or structure in the world. List your first and second choices."</p> <p>And I cannot think of one thing haha!</p> <p>Where would you go??</p> <p>(a lot of people commented saying the pyramids, machu pichu or the great wall) </p>
