The Eleven Wonders
The Eleven Wonders is a ruined fairy theme park. It is composed of "hemispherical structures" that are constructed of "hexagonal panels welded together along the seams". The park is lit by a huge artificial crystal sun and Glo-strips. It appears in Artemis Fowl: The Opal Deception, and is infested by trolls. The theme park contains models of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and four other monuments thought by fairy scholars to be wonders, even if humans do not count them as such. These are Abu Simbel, Borobodur, the Throne Hall at Persepolis and the Moai statues on Rapa Nui.
