UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List

The UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List is an inventory of cultural and natural sites a country considers important and plans to nominate for World Heritage status. It serves as a preliminary step, allowing nations to identify and safeguard these significant sites before submitting formal nominations for UNESCO’s recognition. Being on the list highlights the site's global importance, helps attract funding and conservation efforts, and encourages protection for future generations. It’s a way for countries to showcase their cultural diversity and natural beauty while working towards international recognition and preservation.
