Lebanon is out of the N7W (New 7 wonders) competition as Jeita Grotto did not rank in the top 7. The Provisional New 7 Wonders of Nature are the Amazon, Halong Bay, Iguazu Falls, Jeju Island, Komodo, Puerto Princesa Underground River, and Table Mountain. [Link]
In conclusion, it turned out to be a big waste of money and time. I am glad that I did not take part of it and I will elaborate why in a future post.

Wow i can’t wait to read that future post because i really REALLY disagree with your way of thinking.
@ Cyril. Dude get over it. Jeitta isn’t one of the seven wonders of nature. It’s not cuz the global collective is not ready to accept it as one. Let the Lebanese be well mannered first before being ill-mannered. Before the Lebanese wanting to seek world wide recognition, let them seek self recognition.
On the bright side look at what Jeitta lost to. Jeitta lost against the amazon rainforest. Seriously only a fool can deny how awesome it is.
Hard luck Jeita, lot of people specialy the young generation, at schools and univ. , media…. Made a lot of effort on that.
But lets look at it from different angle: is our country prepared to receive the huge number of tourisms? Anja2 machi 7alna.
My first reaction after anouncing the results: a7san bala 3aj2it sayer

Bla Bla Bla
Honestly as much as I wanted JG to win, I am actually sick of it… y? cause each time a foreigner comes to lebanon, she’s like plz take me to jeita grotto, I’ve heard so much abt it…I have gone so many times, that I’m sick of it, I know all it’s corners & even the guides inside let me take pictures cause they know me!
i never voted because its a ripoff. such matters should have a commitee that studies it from all aspects.
seriously people who voted thought they could stand a chance infront of usa or a country with over 30 million people?
voting was made only to steal money, not only lebanon lost the competiton but also got stolen over 6$ millon sms.
how stupid could people be?
i cant believe youre actually saying that it was a waste of time and money !!!
first of all we ( 2 , 3 million people ) ranked in the top 14 !!! that would still get a lot of tourism in lebanon !
and then maybe we might gather around something for once , like we did when voting !
so i see us losing as an oppurtunity for a better lebanon ! 🙂
