<H3 align=center>The approach to the Garden sloped like a hillside and the several parts of the structure rose from one another tier on tier... On all this, the earth had been piled... and was thickly planted with trees of every kind that, by their great size and other charm, gave pleasure to the beholder... The water machines [raised] the water in great abundance from the river, although no one outside could see it.</H3>

This is one of the Seven Wonders of Ancient World. Only one remains today, and it's the Pyramid of Giza. A pity, since the Ancient Seven are very much superior to the current Seven. |
