7 Natural Wonders Sought

Posted by Amanda Kendle Jul 11, 2007

A couple of days ago we reported on the announcement of the New 7 Wonders of the World - including our disappointment that the only Eastern European finalist, Moscow's Kremlin, didn't make the winners' list. But now we have a new contest brought out by the same team - it's the search for the 7 Natural Wonders of the World.

At the moment, the 7 Natural Wonders hunt is still at the nomination stage. You can check their website for details on how to make nominations, and valid nominations include categories like lakes and rivers, deserts, cliffs and coastlines, rocks and mountains. I have, of course, already nominated my beloved Lake Baikal for the list - nominations are open until 08.08.08, so you've got plenty of time to get your ideas in. Presumably the voting system will follow a similar system as the New 7 Wonders contest, and in a year or so we'll get a shortlist that everybody can vote for. Stay tuned for your chance to help Lake Baikal!
