In Civ V, Polynesia can build Moai everywhere along the coast, but in reality, they are only found in a single small island.

Hwangnyongsa - 25
Luxor Temple - 19
Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 27
Osaka Castle - 6 (9 - 3) -- Including Osaka Castle rather than Himeji makes absolutely no sense, like including the Pyramid of Djoser and not the Pyramids of Giza.

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 20+1=21 Was a great landmark of the region with an interesting history.
Duomo di Milano - 27
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 25
Hwangnyongsa - 25
Luxor Temple - 19-3=16 Deciding between the two ancient Egyptian temples was hard but of the two ancient Egyptian temples we have on this list, I think a recreation of what the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut original look like would look better.

Osaka Castle - (5-3)=2 Must die before Serpent Mound. Himeiji Castle is better.
Royal Palace of Palenque - 17
Serpent Mound - (7+1)=8 Most of the other wonders represent areas of the world already covered in the current game. It's older than most of the others here, except for the Egyptian ones. I would be visually different from other wonders.
It's not surprising people from outside North America are downvoting Serpent Mound. It's the fault of past American scholars for giving the rest of the world a certain image of Native Americans: people without cities, living in nature.

Buddhas of Bamiyan - 21 - 3 = 18 (While great, I think finishing here is a good enough place for them. There are more impressive statues elsewhere, though perhaps not in such a unique locale.)

Hwangnyongsa - 25 + 1 = 26 (An excellent Korean representative, and a genuinely staggering piece of architecture judging by the proportions and its central role in Seondeok's Buddhist state.)

Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut - 24 (27 - 3) To be frank I would like a wonder from another part of the world before we get another from the Nile region since we already have the Pyramids and Jebel Barkal.
Royal Palace of Palenque - 14
Serpent Mound - 10 (9 + 1) I will support a wonder that is entirely different from every other wonder on this list and the only one we would ever get from First Nation tribes in modern day US and Canada. The Latin American Indigenous peoples get all the love for their wonders, its about time that love spreads North.

My Osaka Castle....

Duomo di Milano - 28 - 3 = 25 Although it is a beautiful and impressive cathedral, and I would love to see it in the game, but it is still not my favorite Italian wonder, this position belongs to Santa Maria del Fiore. And I do not want to see this leading above to Hwangnyongsa.
Etchmiadzin Cathedral - 26
Hwangnyongsa - 26 + 1 = 27 We need more oriental wonders, this seems to be the best choice for Korean wonder.

Luxor Temple - (13-3)=10 I prefer Hatshepsut's temple to this. There are several other temples with this same design, so it should have been a unique look for the Egyptian temple in-game.

Serpent Mound - (7+1)=8 Stone is overrated, a snake-shaped mound is a unique visual for the game
