Cultural Heritage Site
A Cultural Heritage Site is a location recognized for its historical, cultural, or architectural significance. These sites can include ancient ruins, historic buildings, or traditional landscapes that reflect the identity and values of a community. They are often protected by national or international laws to preserve their integrity for future generations.
Many Cultural Heritage Sites are designated by organizations like UNESCO, which aims to promote and protect sites of outstanding universal value. Examples include the Great Wall of China, the Pyramids of Giza, and the Machu Picchu in Peru. These sites attract visitors and scholars, contributing to cultural understanding and tourism.
