Description

There are 892 sites in the world with UNESCO World Heritage status, ranging from Stone Age wall paintings and Inca ruins to spectacular landscapes like the Grand Canyon and the hiding places of endangered species such as the giant panda. THE WORLD HERITAGE includes them all - their origins, historical development and their significance in the world today. More than 1,000 colour photographs, as well as many maps, make this a superb reference to the natural and cultural icons of the planet.
