What is the Best "World Renowned" Sight?

There are few "Sights" that are so famous that they are known all around the world.  Obviously comparing mountains to buildings to temples to canyons is near impossible.  However, I have attempted to combine some of the very "well known" sights I have visited in one mega-list. All these places are pretty incredible and really cool in their own unique way.
