Foundation (N7W)&#8221; initiated a campaign to name the New Seven Wonders of the World. With only one of the original ancient Wonders still standing, the foundation aimed to recognize modern-day architectural and engineering marvels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over 100 million votes were cast in the selection process, and in 2007, the New Seven Wonders of the World were officially announced. It&#8217;s worth noting that this was before the rise of internet bots, so the votes were likely cast by real people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The New Seven Wonders of the World were chosen through a global poll that sparked some controversy. Despite the disagreements, the seven wonders were officially named and have since become popular tourist destinations. While there are countless other breathtaking places on Earth, these wonders have a special ability to inspire awe and wonder in those who visit them.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"petra-jordan\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Petra_Jordan\"><\/span>Petra, Jordan<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/viralvacationideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tourists-at-petra-2022-08-11-16-33-35-utc-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Tourists at Petra, Jordan\" class=\"wp-image-4139\" srcset=\"https:\/\/viralvacationideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tourists-at-petra-2022-08-11-16-33-35-utc-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/viralvacationideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tourists-at-petra-2022-08-11-16-33-35-utc-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/viralvacationideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tourists-at-petra-2022-08-11-16-33-35-utc-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/viralvacationideas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tourists-at-petra-2022-08-11-16-33-35-utc.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Petra is an <a href=\"https:\/\/viralvacationideas.com\/top-10-things-to-see-in-greece\/\">ancient city<\/a> located in Jordan that has been around since the 6th century BC but remained hidden from the outside world for centuries.
