Hehe. Maguuma waters would have to be one of them, with all of their magical properties and such... Maybe some of the giant buildings built by people trying to ascend?

Probably the Temple of Ascension... Maybe that last place in Hell's Precipice too, or at least the Door of Komalie (is that what it's called?)

I like balthazar's temple in falls much better... It gets shadowy once you approach it and walls look very cool to.

well the statue is great but there are a few of them spread around the desert, plus the floating castle would have to be the seventh, nothing else like it.

Hmm, interesting...

My line up for the seven wonders of Tyria would be as follows:

- The Great Northern Wall
- Augury Rock
- The arches of Lion's Arch
- The watchtowers of Watchtower Coast
- Tomb of the Primeval Kings
- Door of Komalie
- The Desert Colossus

These are generally large and spectacular synthetic things, not natural.

Shame on all of you! How could you not include the cave of Lyssa on the northern borders of Mineral Springs?



And the entrance to UW in Lornar's Pass definitely deserves to be included!


But seriously, these places are beautiful.

I think there's more than just 7 wonders in Tyria...

1. The Great Northern Wall
2. The Door of Komalie
3. Augury Rock (the rock itself may be natural, but the inside is anything but!)
4. Lyssa's Cave
5. The watchtowers of Watchtower Coast
6. The Temple of Ages
7. Glint's Cave (including ToA)(Glint's cave it said to be concealed in a single grain of sand).
8. The [Floating] Wizard's Tower (there's another 'wizard's tower' in presearing Ascalon, Elementalist Aizure hangs out there).

Those are my 8. I know you want 7, but I think there should be 8 here too (Stonehenge is not included among our seven wonders, I believe it should be).

How bout having 2 lists? ...you could have something like "The Seven Natural Wonders of Tyria", and "The Seven Man-made Wonders of Tyria".

lol this is like a Hitchhikers Guide to Tyria.

Next thing you know runners will be charging people money to take them on tour groups of all the sights and sounds in Tyria.

I like the idea of "natural wonders" and "man-made wonders" (only I'd change it to "mortal-made", to include all sentient races). I'd also add a third category, "Divine Wonders" (things created by the gods).

I would include the focus point for the Searing, except that that's a very recent addition, and Wonders of the World are usually things that have been around for a loooong time.

Natural Wonders
Giant's Basin
The Falls
The Henge of Denravi
Arid Plateau (the plateau where you finish your first 15 attr quest)
Glint's Lair (was unsure which of the three categories this would go in)
Lyssa's Cave (in Mineral Springs)
The Ring of Fire

Mortal-Made Wonders
The Wizard's Tower (in Pre-Searing)
The Great North Wall
The Temple of Tolerance (in D'Alessio Seaboard)
Watchtower Coast
Tomb of the Primeval Kings
Sorrow's Furnace
The Door of Komalie

Divine Wonders
Augury Rock
Shrine to Grenth (in Lornar's Pass)
The Key Bloodstone (in Hell's Precipice)
The Great Forge (in FoW)
Twin Serpent Mountains (in UW)
Grenth's Hall (in UW)
The Hall of Heroes
