An infographic about the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World — extraordinary architectural and artistic achievements celebrated for their grandeur and innovation. The wonders included the Great Pyramid of Giza, the only surviving wonder, which served as a monumental tomb for the Egyptian Pharaoh Khufu. Although the Hanging Gardens of Babylon’s actual existence and location is debated, they were described as a lush, terraced paradise built in ancient Babylon. The Statue of Zeus at Olympia was a massive gold and ivory representation of the Greek god Zeus, crafted by the sculptor Phidias. The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus was a magnificent sanctuary dedicated to the goddess Artemis, famed for its scale and intricate decoration. The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus was an elaborate tomb for Mausolus, a Persian satrap renowned for its architectural splendor and sculptural detail.
