[German] - Die sieben Weltwunder
"Sie existierten bereits vor tausenden von Jahren, üben jedoch bis heute eine große Faszination aus: die sieben Weltwunder der Antike. Obwohl sie für die Ewigkeit erbaut wurden, sind heute nur noch die Pyramiden von Gizeh erhalten. Umso spannender ist es, den Geschichten auf diesem Hörbuch zu lauschen und die Bau werke vor dem inneren Auge wieder aufleben zu lassen: · Das Mausoleum von Halikarnassos · Die hängenden Gärten von Babylon · Der Koloss von Rhodos · Der Leuchtturm von Pharos · Die Pyramiden von Gizeh · Die Zeusstatue von Olympia · Der Artemistempel von Ephesos"
