Cool Maps: 7 Wonders

Citadel Museum and Archives

"The past is brought to life with photographs from the Archives highlighting the exhibits. Memorabilia from special events, biographical sketches of the presidents of the college, as well as cadet uniforms and arms are displayed. Through a self guided tour, the visitor experiences the essence of each era in The Citadel's history. "

Great Barrier Reef

"Most important, however, is the park itself--a place of beauty, providing for all time, for all citizens and visitors, a matchless vista of a beautiful harbor. "

Paris Mountain State Park

"Formerly a watershed for the city of Greenville, the 1540-acre Paris Mountain features large stands of old growth hardwood forests that canopy over hiking and biking trails, a family campground, picnic areas and Camp Buckhorn, a group-camp complex. "

Reedy River Falls Historic Park

"The park's most striking feature is a unique pedestrian bridge that curves around a waterfall on the Reedy River. Named the "Liberty Bridge," the 355-foot long suspension bridge is supported by cables on only one side, giving an unobstructed view of the falls. "

Huntington Beach State Park

"It features some of the best birding of the east coast of the US. It has both fresh- and saltwater marshes and hosts many species of ducks and waders in winter. It also has an unspoilt beach and a jetty where oceanbirds like gannets, loons, scoters and occasionally alcids like razorbills and murres can be found. "
