Perhaps we can say that one of the natural yet consider as World's Wonder that was there already placed by God during creation is the Mount Everest.
This is the highest mountain in the world which attracts many well-experienced mountaineers as well as novice climbers who are willing to pay substantial sums to professional mountain guides to complete a succesful climb.

Mount Everest is so famous for being so high that you've probably heard of it before. It has been known over the world since the early 1950's when Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzig Norgay first climbed to its awesome summit. Hillary surveyed Everest at the time and determined that it was 29,000 ft./8,840m high-a figure amazingly close to the current reading of 29,035ft./8,850m, which was confirmed using radar and global positioning satellite (GPS) technology.
