Or have you ever visited any of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World?
I would like to visit the city of Giza, today part of Greater Cairo, Egypt to see the Great Pyramid.

Actually the only one surviving from the seven wonders of the ancient world is the Great Pyramid of Giza And I have visited that one :) a magnificent building that defied the time for 4000 years! also i saw some of the remains of the Pharos of Alexandria (also in Egypt) but it's no longer existing, it collapsed long time ago..
