Great Map!
Interesting to note that in 1896 three pyramids were listed as top 50 ‘tall buildings’.
Barely over a century ago and 2 in the top 10 are from over 4000 years ago.
True words, some authentic words dude. You rocked my day.
Also interesting: The Statue of liberty is just called “Bartholdi statue”
Your blog is really nice and interesting, I appreciate your work.
Actually, the Qutub Minar in New Delhi, India should have been in the 32nd place with the height of 237.8 ft. It was completed in 1368 AD.
