Wonders of the World - Part 1 of 3

These next few weeks we have some special goodies. There is currently an internet vote to choose the top 7 existing wonders of the world out of 21 candidates. All these candidates are wonders in their own right. Coincidentally, the last two sets of mobile wallpapers are of candidates - the Statue of Liberty and the Great Wall of China. These next few weeks, we'll have mobile wallpapers of the other 19 candidates. This week it's the Acropolis in Athens, Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, the Eiffel Tower (which also appeared here in this post) in Paris, Saint Basil cathedral at the Kremlin in Moscow, the Incan city of Machu Picchu in Peru, and Neuschwanstein Castle (which also appeared here in this post) in Germany.
