10 Most Iconic Human Made Structures In The World

#7 Machu Picchu
Country: Peru

The word Machu Picchu, in the native tongue means ‘old peaks’ and is seated at a height of 2350 meter above the sea level. This ancient town was the secret retreat center of the Inca dynasty and is estimated to be built around 1440 AD. The monument that contains palaces, baths and places of worship was rediscovered in 1911. The geography of the location kept the structure out of quick sight and remained unknown for years. The perfection and skill shown in the construction of the ‘lost city of Incas’ is seemingly amazing.

#8 Sydney Opera House

The monument was constructed in 1973 under the monitoring of Jorn Utzon, a Danish architect. Opera house is a theater for performing arts and has multiple venues with seating capacity of 2700 people.
