Back to Life: Wonders of the World turns back time to reveal realistic reconstructions of the most incredible wonders humankind has ever constructed.

Each story begins by showing you the wonder as it is today. You'll learn when and how it was constructed, and what it teaches us about how the people who lived at the site might have spent their days. Then you'll see the location recreated in jaw-dropping 3D detail. Using archaeological evidence and computer technology, the people and places of the past will be brought back to life before your very eyes.
