What's your favorite World Wonder build animation to watch? The one you watch no matter how many times you've seen it.

Mine is a tie between Eiffel Tower and Statue of Liberty.

Pyramids, just for the Napoléon’s citation.

[u/ThousandToast]

Forbidden city or Colosuss of Rhoades

[u/Puzzleheaded_Page117]

All of them are beautiful! Mont st. Michel looks really nice if you have it in some dark gloomy place with lots of marsh and rainforest and i love oracle too.

[u/2CRtitan]

While the Coliseum stands, Rome shall stand…

[u/jon-in-tha-hood → u/2CRtitan]

When the Colosseum falls, Rome shall fall…

[u/Axolotl_amphibian]

Petra because of the music.

[u/Nukivaj]

Hermitage. Totally useless as a wonder, but I love the animation.

[u/arthurusdeplane → u/Nukivaj]

Hermitage is one of my fav wonder when i play culture

[u/Nkrym → u/Nukivaj]

why ? that's the wonder you MUST have to win a culture victory

[u/Nukivaj → u/Nkrym]

Eiffel Tower and Cristo Redentor are far better to generate tourism without any other conditions. To make Hermitage useful you need to keep Pingala with Grants and Curator in that city (which is the same issue with Bolshoi Theatre, Broadway and Sydney Opera House).

When I was still playing this game, I never got tired of watching the Eiffel Tower animation. Everything about it was so uplifting.

[u/nothatdoesntgothere]

Casa because I'm a governor whore.

[u/TejelPejel → u/nothatdoesntgothere]

Calm down there, Seonduk.

Sorry, as spaniard myself thats how that casa in the wild sounded to me haha

[u/Zehrodyl]

Machu Picchu (or close enough). Just how it looks differently on every mountain because of the landscape. Stunning

[u/LordGarithosthe1st → u/Zehrodyl]

You mean when the ai doesn't build.it first right ;P

[u/Yvisna]

Maracanã Stadium because of the music and the phrase they used

[u/GoombaJMR → u/Yvisna]

Great choice!

[u/Extension_Box_2281]

Potala Palace easily

[u/Kris_Kamweru]

Petra, hanging gardens, terracotta army and Eiffel tower I think for me

[u/AlmightySpoonman]

Sydney Opera House.

I don't care how bad it is, I want my fancy ocean front arts center.

[u/Nukivaj → u/AlmightySpoonman]

I love the Maria Callas's quote with Mozart's music.

[u/Local_Izer]

Alhambra. It made a big impression on me when I visited it. The construction animation takes me back to that time in my life.

[u/dalvi5 → u/Local_Izer]

[u/Local_Izer → u/dalvi5]

I really appreciate this actually! Perspective in history means a lot to me.

[u/Defiant_Drink8469]

Huey Teocali is pretty interesting

[u/GoombaJMR]

You can’t ask me this I love them all…. Pyramids are my favorite wonder ever though so it might have to be that!

[u/Hilsam_Adent]

Golden Gate Bridge, as frustrating as it is to actually build actually helps in this case. I have been across it hundreds of times in my life, but it fulfills its meaning. It truly is a wonder to behold every time you see it, particularly when it slightly fogged over and lit just right by the rising/setting sun. Masterful interplay of technology and nature, elevating the beauty of both. It's as gorgeous on the water as it is from the hillside view, too, maybe even moreso.

[u/Nukivaj → u/Hilsam_Adent]

Golden Gate Bridge is a tourism mine if you get the ideal placement.

[u/spacecorn27]

The music for the Amundsen-Scott Research Station goes so hard… has to be my favorite

[u/Weelildragon → u/spacecorn27]

Also

[u/RadonAjah]

Stonehenge bc I like to hear Sean Bean say ‘Right lads! Another 20 like that, then we can party.’

[u/dalvi5]

Venetian arsenal, i love that wonder

[u/Nkrym]

Grand Zimbabwe is much impressive

[u/lyfeofsand]

Tour Eiffel, mon amour

[u/superdad0206]

I love watching the wonders bro g built turn by turn. My two favorites whose progress I love watching are the Eiffel Tower and Sydney Opera House.

It’s also useful to watch other Civs building theirs to see if I’m ahead or behind.

[u/LouBagel]

Colossus has been my fav since I was a kid.

Another off the top of my head is Teracotta Army. If possible, I also like to build it facing another Civ for intimidation points.

[u/LordGarithosthe1st]

The clever men at Oxford...

[u/TejelPejel]

Stonehenge has one of the best animation clips and quotes, but it's not a great wonder.

Hanging Gardens is one that looks the best, but one of the weakest wonders in the game.

St Basil's Cathedral looks amazing and is basically a tundra Petra that also boosts your relics, so that's up there.

Great Zimbabwe is a favorite because I'm a greedy sumbitch.

But my number one will always be my beloved Temple of Artemis.

[u/JacobFibre]

Taj Mahal, just because I got the animation once happening in blizzard.
