One great example of a man made wonder is the Great Wall Of China. There are many types of man made wonders all over the world. Although the adventure of going to these places are not that exciting and thrilling compared to going to natural wonders, you will still be in great awe in seeing such things. The picture alone is quite beautiful, much more if you are there to see it personally. The way this was made is still mind boggling and a bit mythical. Knowing the story of these wonders is part of the adventure.
The Great Wall Of China was made by the China's first Emperor Qin Shi Huang in 220-206 BC. Having unified the six states he needed to make something that can protect his new found kingdom from the Huns. Thus the great wall was made. It shows the iron will of the Chinese people.
Over the years it has changed little by little but if you look at it as a whole, it still looks the same. Many renovations were made since father time always does what he does best. And that is to slowly deteriorate our human bodies and slowly break down buildings.
