  • Yeah, it’s basically a big hole in the ground, with some bits of ancient columns scattered about. The Temple of Artemis is a bit of bog with a couple of columns standing up - they have been restored.

    The wife and I have visited 5 of the 7 Wonders sites. The statue of Zeus is in our future at some point. I’m told that all there is is a replica in the middle of a roundabout.
