GraniteGleam+FollowAll 7 Wonders Later, I Found My FavoriteSeven wonders checked off. Petra at sunrise, Machu Picchu in fog, the Great Wall stretching endlessly. But standing in front of the Taj Mahal at 6AM, watching marble shift from gray to gold—nothing prepared me for that. Not the crowds I'd heard about. Not the pollution warnings. Just perfect symmetry catching light like it was designed by someone who understood grief. Every other wonder felt like a conquest. This one felt like witnessing something that shouldn't exist but does. The photos you've seen? They're flat. They can't capture how small you feel, or how the inlay work looks hand-drawn up close, or the way your voice echoes differently inside. Tourist trap? Maybe. Worth fighting the crowds at dawn? Absolutely. Some places live up to impossible expectations. This is one of them. #Travel #SevenWonders #TravelReality30Share
