In Building Wonders, NOVA presents three ground- breaking shows that investigate engineering mysteries of the ancient world with the help of dramatic hands-on experiments. Modern architects use medieval tools to examine the Lost City of Petra in the middle of Jordans desert, the vast Roman Coliseum, and Turkeys 1,500 year-old cathedral dome, Hagia Sophia.
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
