Maravillas del mundo: artificiales y naturales

In this class, we will take a virtual trip around the world to dive into some of the most spectacular manmade and natural features known. Join this weekly meeting to discover places that are considered to be engineering marvels through manmade skill and design or through nature carving a place in history.
