Misc / Comments (0) / March 12, 2012

New7Wonders of Nature was an initiative started in 2007 to create a list of seven natural wonders chosen by people through a global poll. It was led by Canadian-Swiss Bernard Weber and organized by the New7Wonders Foundation, a Swiss-based foundation. The New7Wonders of Nature campaign started in 2007, immediately after the campaign to elect the man-made New7Wonders of the World, in which more than 100 million votes were cast. From over 440 participants representing over 220 countries and through a national qualification and race to become one of the Top 77, as well as the recommendations of the Panel of Experts led by Prof. Federico Mayor, the list of 28 “Official Finalist Candidates” was determined. Voting lasted until November 2011, during which time the New7Wonders World Tour visited each of the finalists to allow them to present themselves to the voters across the globe. Set as a little reminder, The New Seven Wonders Of Nature are Amazon Rainforest, Halong Bay, Iguazu Falls, Jeju Island, Komodo National Park, Puerto Princesa River and The Table Mountain. In this article we will show you the places that did not make the cut.
