If the Pont du Gard is left out for being an Aquaeduct, why would you include a wonder like Etemenaki or cathedral wonders? :p
 
I'd be cautious about adding things such as the Smithsonian Institution, considering it accounts for a number of sites and museums in the USA, none of which individually I would call Wonder-worthy. Perhaps the Smithsonian Institution Building more specifically? Or the National Mall which encompasses most of the museums as well as other notable monuments?

Etemenanki looks different enough from the Ziggurat improvement, same goes for the cathedral wonders and the Cathedral faith building. Pont du Gard doesn't look much different from the in-game Aqueducts. I'm also more impressed by the Segovia aqueduct than Pont du Gard. It would look weird as a wonder in-game, that one famous section of aqueduct with nothing connecting it.....

I'll consider it the Smithsonian Institution Building. National Mall is too big and has so many buildings.

I have one nagging question, should I include Bridge Wonders?
I already included Canals and Dams, but what about Bridges? Are they even feasible in Civ6?

If bridges aren't included, I'm not really sure why dams should be either. Again, they're not really something you can do in Civ VI.

Perhaps they can be built next to a lake? :dunno:
I'm not really motivated to remove the dams from the list. I actually would like to see bridge wonders. Too bad rivers are just lines between hexes.
 
If various baseball stadiums are added, then Toronto's Rogers Centre (formerly known as SkyDome) should be added, since it's the first stadium in the world with a fully functioning retractable roof (the Colosseum's retractable roof doesn't cover the entire stadium, unlike the Rogers Centre).

Let's act that some rivers would get the "Nile treatment" from the Nubia and Egypt scenario. Then it would be no problem to add bridges :p
 
This could be an idea, but for that the game should be altered to have wider rivers. Maybe these are tiles that are half land/half river, and both land and naval units can be on them, with limitations.
 
Anyways, if we have canals and dams, then bridges should come, too. The Nubia and Egypt scenario offers a river mechanic that could allow building bridge wonders.

And for bridge wonders, I have these:
Ponte di Rialto (Venice, Italy)
Golden Gate Bridge (San Francisco, the United States)
Brooklyn Bridge (New York, the United States)
Charles Bridge (Prague, the Czech Republic)
Tower Bridge (London, the United Kingdom)
Harbour Bridge (Sydney, Australia)
 
Suggestion: Hwangnyongsa Temple (Korea). No longer survives (except its massive foundations), but at the time the Dragon Temple was finished, it was the center of Korean Buddhism, and the largest wooden structure in the world at the time of its completion by Queen Seondeok.

I agree with opinions above stating that bridge wonders shouldn't be a thing. We have plenty of impressive structures (palaces, temples, etc) without having to resort to elevating bridges (or roads) to world wonder status. Also, having been to the Pont du Gard, I think it was impressive but hardly a world wonder.

So what would the bonuses be? Would they all require bodies of water? Do people pay money to visit the bridges? There are few iconic bridges and of them, very few if any could be said to be world wonders.

I know at least the Golden Gate Bridge has a toll on it, Brooklyn I believe as well. Tower, Harbour, and Brooklyn Bridge are iconic pieces of London, Sydney, and NYC architecture. Charles Bridge has a bunch of cool statuary on it and of course was the site of a major battle at the end of the 30 years war where the citizens of Prague pushed the Swedish army back over the river and out of the heart of the city basically breaking the back of the siege of Prague.
