IMO it should have been these and for most it isn't even close. Some of my choices are probably because I'm an Architecture major.

The Acropolis - Greece
The Colosseum - Italy
Stonehenge - UK
The Pyramids of Giza - Egypt
Hagia Sophia - Turkey
The Great Wall of China - China
The Easter Island Statues - Chile

aren't the easter island statues all knocked down? what about angkor?

I'm pretty sure there are many left standing, the island has a ton of those stone heads all over.

These are definites:

The Acropolis - Greece
The Colosseum - Italy
Stonehenge - UK
The Pyramids of Giza - Egypt
The Great Wall of China - China

And these are debatable:

The Easter Island Statues - Chile
Hagia Sophia - Turkey

I've always wanted to see the Easter Island statues and personally think they are very cool especially after learning about all the background of what is known of the construction and the civilization that built them.
