UN World Heritage Sites

There are almost 1000 places around the world which are classed as World Heritage Sites.

UNESCO co-ordinates the LIST OF SITES.

Google's WORLD WONDERS project explores a handful of these sites, with plans to extend further in time. I worked on some of the educational materials for this website.

You can order a large poster map of the sites with additional information for just €2
I ordered several and they are rather good, and great value...

Each year, there is a meeting to discuss sites which are at risk, or which have stopped being at risk. The most recent one made a series of changes to the list as always. These changes are worth exploring. What are the criteria for making the list ?

Put together a bid for your home town to become a World Heritage site...
