YOu mean the ones still surviving at the end of the Third Age, or wonders in general?

Surviving wonders:
-The White Tower of Minas Tirith
-Moria (can it be classified as 'surviving' though?)
-Orthanc
-Henneth Annun in Ithilien
-the Stone of Erech
-Caras Galadhon, City of Trees in Lorien
-Dunharrow in Rohan

There are many other wonders that didn't survive:
Menegroth, Gondolin, The Dome of Stars in Osgiliath, etc.
