I was Stumbling around this morning and came across this link – 50 of the world’s most important and well known landmarks. I was kind of disappointed in how many of them I haven’t actually heard of but was also surprised to find that I’ve been to a few of them! Not many… but I hadn’t seen any of them this time last year! Check out the link and comment, how many of these have you been to?

I’d love to travel to all of these landmarks someday, of course, but if I could pick five places to visit to see five of these landmarks, I’d choose:

i love lists like this :)
i've been to: the eiffel tower, big ben, tower of pisa, brandenburg gate, and neptune at versailles (dead cam that day...boo!)my top 5 on this list would have to be...auschwitz, mt. everest, al aqsa, the acropolis, and machu picchu...but also the sphynx. ah! too many to chose from.
I've been to the Grand Canyon, and I'm going again this summer! This just inspires me MORE in wanting to see the world. It's really all I want from life. Traveling is such a dream! I've seen the Statue of Liberty from a boat in the water next to it, but I've never been in the statue herself. I might actually be able to see Mt Rushmore this summer also. We'll see.
I don't know what my top 5 would be....
The Great Wall of China, Mt Fuji, Easter Island, The Great Buddha of Kamakura in Tokyo (Kamakura is my favorite period of Japanese history!) and the Acropolis of Athens. I think.... it's hard to choose! Let's just go to them all!
