Seven Wonders of the world

I fully agree with John Mark apropos his letter published in the July 6, 1996 issue that Borobudur, though indeed a great work of art, is not among the seven wonders of the world. It is not among the ancient wonders listed by the second century BC writer Antipoter of Sidon nor is it among the medieval wonders.

Strange as it may seem, even our Taj at Agra is sometimes mistakenly counted among the seven wonders. The Great Wall of China, I think, is included in the list of seven wonders of the medieval world.
