Historical Cultural Landscape

A Historical Cultural Landscape is a specific area that reflects the historical interactions between people and their environment. This includes buildings, roads, farms, and natural features that have been shaped by cultural practices over time. Such landscapes tell stories about a community's values, traditions, and changes throughout history. They help us understand how human activities have influenced the land and how the environment has, in turn, impacted societal development. Recognizing these landscapes preserves cultural heritage and fosters a deeper appreciation for our shared history and identity.
