Taj Mahal made it to New Seven Wonders

Finally, after so much of media hype and hoopla, New 7 wonders of the world list is out and our very own Taj Mahal also made it to the elite list. The New Seven Wonders were selected in a global poll, in which more than 100 million people participated through SMS, phone and web vote.

The new seven wonders of the world are:

• Great Wall of China
• Petra, Jordan
• Christ the Redeemer, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
• Machu Picchu, Perú
• Chichen Itza, Mexico
• Colosseum, Rome, Italy
• Taj Mahal

However, UNESCO does not support this campaign and hence this list can not get official status.
