The Seven Wonders of the World
Two statues, a temple, a hanging garden, two tombs and a lighthouse. This selection of monuments became known as "The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World". There are probably few who could list them right away, are even fewer who know something about each of them or the reasons for which they were labeled as Wonders. Six of those seven were destroyed by forces of nature, or by human hand. Each episode in this series describes one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and we see besides the monuments themselves the people who designed and built them, with the vision to create something wonderful.

John Romer bears viewers a wonderful trip, studying the pyramids of Egypt and the new concept of wonder of the world. Visiting the amazing Sydney Opera building in Australia, Romer walks along the majestic roof of this structure, considered one of the modern wonders of the world.

Pyramids of Giza are the only surviving ancient wonders and by far the oldest, and Romer explains how and why they were built. You then follow Romer climbing to the Pharaoh's Chamber in the Great Pyramid, where he discusses the mathematical complexity of the pyramid and its significance for ancient Egyptians.
