The most precious monuments, the most significant historic cities, the most beautiful cultural landscapes, and the most breathtaking ecosystems and natural monuments of our planet are inscribed on UNESCO\u2019s World Heritage List. They are those sites which the international community has promised to protect at all cost. However, many World Heritage sites are threatened: by mega-projects and mass tourism, war and neglect. We cannot accept their loss. World Heritage Watch stands up for these endangered sites of the world.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
