Hold SHIFT and press PRINT SCREEN. Much easier.

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...
Those combined with the Statue of Balthazar has me wondering... Are there places like these for the other 2 Gods? C'mon, I know Dwayna has statues everywhere, but nothing I've found of her's is as grand as these other three locations. And as for Melandru's, well Melandru doesn't have much of anything.

I keep waiting for them to make a quest related to this. I think it'd be cool to have a quest inside the castle maybe. Hint Hint A-Net.

It's hard to get a pic of the cave of Lyssa if you haven't cleared out that cave..

All jokes a side, i think that dividing it in the Seven wonders of "The prophecy" and the Seven Wonders of "Factions" might help place more places and limit the areas.

well what about this the pics are kinda small but I'm not smart enough to know how to resize it so it doesnt use like 2 megabytes so photobucket resizes for me.

Edit: I forgot to add a description, and its so small I think you will need one.
It's a building surrounded by a moat. There is a Balthazar statue in the front and a bridge leading up to where there is 4 bone dragons and a Rottscale. Oh and the sky went darkO_O

Hence why the thread is "seven wonders of tyria" and not "seven wonders of cantha"

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).
take out TOA and it's fine. I dont think, compared to some of Tyria's other wonders, an outdoor temple filled with statues counts...


What about the wonders of Cantha? maybe someone should start a post about them...

The Pride Rock. This is what I thought when I saw the picture lol.

I hate Maw Mountainheart for many reasons.

For the topic, I think Augury Rock can have a place in the list. Wonder if Denravi can be in the list too. Its a natural place changed by human to make this place.

Wow, it says i have 70% of tyria explored yet ive seen almost none of these things. I'd especially like to see that floating castle and secret garden, if anyone could tell me where they are.

Anyways, a long while back I was doing quests with a group in the desert, starting out from augury. I'm not sure exactly where we were, but it was fairly far off from anywhere recognizable. Then, we found a series of uniquely formed rocks sticking up out of the ground, kinda like stone henge only way bigger. If anyone has any screens of that place or knows where it is i would love to see it again, as I didn't know how to take them back then.

The cave of Lights and the Secret Garden is in Pre Searing.

Contact me in the game and I can guide you to them. I named the cave of lights myself, have never seen a screenshot or any reference to it so I decided to name it base on its feature.

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
Is there proof that the Door of Komalie is mortal-made? I would presume it's divine, but if anyone knows differently, please speak up.
