I don’t see how any of these are all that wondrous. Colossi were ten a penny in the ancient world. Still got that statue of liberty today.
Statues the size of the Statue of Liberty aren’t even “ten a penny” in the world today:
Note the construction dates. The Chinese Giant Buddha from the 9th century "cheats’ by not being free-standing.
Heck, that other “Seventh Wonder” , the statue of Zeus at Olympia was only about 40 feet tall. a third the height of the Colossus, and it got to be considered a “wonder of the World”
That’s kind of my thinking too. The Hanging Gardens could be an amazing combination of architectural and natural beauty or something rather disappointing; it’s a bit of a crapshoot. The Colossus OTOH sounds like it would almost certainly be impressive so I would perhaps go with that.
Definitely the Colossus.
I just hope I find its sigil before I run out of grip
The Colossus without a doubt.
I could just imagine a group of disappointed time travelers hopelessly staring at the 600BC equivalent of 50+ Topsy Turvy tomato planters all in a row.
A poster after my own heart.
Colossus. Not even close.
The Colossus would be an impressive sight, though evidence is strong against it standing astride the port opening.
I have a thing for lighthouses, so Alexandria would be neat.
I think the Garden has the most potential for ancient beauty.
Although it’s not a wonder, I’d most like to see the famous Library…
