National Monuments

National Monuments are special places protected by the government due to their historical, cultural, or natural significance. In the United States, the president can designate these areas to ensure their preservation for future generations. National Monuments can include landmarks, archaeological sites, and natural formations, like canyons or unique rock formations. They often provide opportunities for recreation and education while safeguarding important parts of the nation’s heritage. The goal is to maintain these sites for their ecological and cultural values, making them accessible for public enjoyment and appreciation.
