7 Wonders of the World

I want to travel to far away lands.
To see the 7 wonders  that people speak of.
 The Great Pyramid at Giza in Egypt would be a treat.
to the Hanging Gardens of Babylon in Iraq. 
The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus in Turkey was once a market place.
The Statue of Zues in Greece, I have been told is a sight to view.
There is the Tomb of Maussollos at Halicarnassus in Turkey, 
people come from all around to see the kings  new home,
to Colossus at Rhodes  where a  statue once sat, but was destroyed by an earth quake.
 The Lighthouse of Alexandria in Egypt  stood 450 feet tall, and is where a night fire burned.
These great places hold so much history, that one day I will see.
