Patrimonio Mundial

Patrimonio Mundial, or World Heritage, refers to landmarks and sites recognized by UNESCO for their cultural, historical, scientific, or other forms of significance. These sites are considered vital to humanity’s collective heritage and are protected to preserve their value for future generations. The designation not only acknowledges the importance of these locations but also encourages conservation efforts and international cooperation. Examples include the Great Wall of China, the Pyramids of Egypt, and the Galápagos Islands. Being named a World Heritage site can boost tourism and support local communities while underscoring the importance of cultural diversity and historical preservation.
