Shropshire Tourism has entered Ironbridge into VirtualTourist.com’s quest to crown the “8th Wonder of the World.”
Claire Owen from Shropshire Tourism said, “As a World Heritage Site and birthplace of the Industrial Revolution, we feel that Ironbridge is certainly a worthy nomination and would like to encourage everyone to vote.”
With numerous Tourism Boards, Chambers of Commerce and Visitor Bureaus sending in a nomination, the public is asked to vote for their favorite out of the almost 300 submissions from around the World. Voters can visit www.virtualtourist.com to vote for Ironbridge until 30 September.
The wonder with the most votes will be crowned the winner. The winner will be featured in a national broadcast TV segment on a popular syndicated program as well as receive a massive media relations campaign push from VirtualTourist.
“It’s wonderful to have a nomination from every corner of the world so we are thrilled to receive Ironbridge as a nomination from Shropshire Tourism,” said Giampiero Ambrosi, General Manager of VirtualTourist.com.
