The Great Pyramid of Giza, Angkor Wat, Stonehenge, The Acropolis, The Colosseum, Petra, The Forbidden City, Red Square, Buckingham Palace, The Eiffel Tower, Burj Khalifa, The Sydney Opera House, The White House, and more. Throughout six episodes we circle the globe, exploring the World's Greatest Icons: that honor the sacred, buildings that reach for the sky, fairytale castles, lavish royal palaces, built environments that enhance communities, and structures that represent power. Over fifteen unique buildings feature in every episode of World's Greatest Engineering Icons. Powerful imagery and narratives that closely follow the course of history allow us to explore the artistry, ingenuity, and engineering behind humanity's greatest architectural accomplishments: the structures that define who we are and all we aspire to achieve. 650 $a Architecture Design and construction 650 $a Building Design and construction 655 $a Documentary television programs 700 $a McAllum, Peter. 008 s2022 941 $a 1 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230630010707.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=743B3D06170B11EEA3C6068B3DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
