What is the World Heritage

 

Enormous treasures were left behind during endless history of earth and human.  It will be a tremendous lost and cannot be retrievable if we do not preserve it well. During the UNESCO Convention in November 1972, a “World Heritage Committee” was established, “Convention concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage” was established, and defined what is “Cultural Heritage” and “Natural Heritage.”  Furthermore, the concept of “Cultural Landscape” was raised and produced “Cultural and Natural Heritage”, which is “Mixed Heritage.” In the year 1997, “Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity” was also established.
