Located in Turkey like one of the other wonders.  It was dedicated to Artemis and its destruction was on the same day as the birth of Alexander the Great!  The original author who complied the wonders said about the temple:

 "But when I saw the sacred house of Artemis that towers to the clouds, the [other Wonders] were placed in the shade, for the Sun himself has never looked upon its equal outside Olympus (The List Universe ).”

How big was it?  When was it built?  Who or what destroyed it?  Who is Artemis?
