5:30 Tikal was used as the setting for the Rebel base on the moon of Yavin in the first Star Wars film, and also in the James Bond film "Moonraker".

The rock-hewn churches of Lalibela, Ethiopia really deserve a mention in this list along with the Mayan ruins of Copan, Honduras.

I would like to visit all those places

[broseph]

Happy to say ive been to 5 of these 😊😊😊. Ill give half a point to Wave Rock. My family got lost getting there in the days we used paper maps 😂

[Gandellion]

I’m shallow, I like Cologne Cathedral better 🙃

Ayers rock is officially titled Uluru. It's not the other way around.

It is amazing what The Earth, as well as humanity, can create and has to offer. Sadly, however, so much of these wonders get taken for granted and are eventually forgotten about.

Here are some places that aren’t completely overrun with tourists. Everybody go visit.

[eifelitorn]

the giant buddha is definitely not underappreciated..

[stefantsarev]

Cappadocia is pronounced with two K-s - "kapadòkia".

[fredriksahlstenglimmevi]

Uhm actually, when you single out Angkor Wat it IS a single temple. Angkor though, now that’s a complex.

[mikitz]

For a long-term Civilization player, quite a lot of these are not all that unfamiliar.

[ARIXANDRE]

Lovely list, but I'd like to honorably mention my couch. ❤

[guilhermeribeiromichelino]

I don't think most of these are underappreciated, the problem is they are in terrible countries, full of violence or just in places that are not easily accesible for people
Like, how could someone willingly go to Venezuela?

[ryanironheart]

Watchmojo you shouldn't be promoting these, as the last thing we need are these places to become inundated with tourists that end up destroying these wonders.

I think I’m better off seeing Angel Falls from Google Earth.
