Solution Evidence The new 7 wonders of the world

The Taj Mahal, built from 1631 to 1654, is a collection of buildings located in
Agra, a city of Uttar Pradesh, India, built by Shah Jahan, emperor of the Mughal
dynasty. The Taj Mahal was built in honor of his favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal,
who died giving birth to his 14th child. Before his death, the emperor's beloved
wife told him his last wishes, which were to build his tomb, to marry again, to care
for and love his children very much, and to visit his tomb annually on the
anniversary of his death ... The emperor, after 8 days and 8 nights of depression
and confinement, without any food or drink, he decides to build the most beautiful
tomb the world has ever seen, so that everyone will remember the name of his
beloved wife and remain as a testimony of his great love for her. This was how
the Taj Mahal was built, the most beautiful mausoleum in the world, covered in
white marble, and adorned at different points by precious stones from all over the
world ... and today, perhaps, represents the greatest construction made by love
towards a woman.

Selection process or contest: In order to choose the new Seven Wonders of the
Modern World, the Swiss Canadian Bernard Weber, inspired by the seven
wonders of the ancient world, set out the initiative to plan an international
competition so that any citizen of the world can select through a vote such
monuments for Medium of the mobile phone with text messages, via e-mail,
through certain TV channels. For this, the traveler and aircraft lover, Weber,
created, in early 2005, the New Open World Foundation. Initially, two hundred
(200) constructions, which fulfilled the condition of having been created by the
hand of man until the year 2000, were put to a vote, regardless of their age or
place of origin. In 2005 the list of constructions was reduced to seventy-seven
(77), and at the end of the same year there were only twenty-one (21). The
voting ended on July 7th, 2007 (at 07h 07m 07s to be exact), at which time the
monuments will be announced to the world to be the Seven New Wonders of the
World in the third millennium. The most modern constructions, built in the
twentieth century were the most disadvantaged in the results. This was how the
Taj Mahal of India stayed on the final list. Unfortunately that opaque said wonder
is the huge garbage that can be seen in the face that don’t show the tourist
photos of the construction, which at one point could be observed in the film Slum
dog Millionaire (Who wants to be a millionaire) which was filmed in India.
