Publisher's Synopsis
In 1972, the General Conference of UNESCO adopted the World Heritage Convention with the aim of identifying and maintaining the list of sites of exceptional importance from a cultural or natural point of view. This collection examines the most important sites, presented in three volumes dedicated by White Star to the world’s artistic, natural and archaeological treasures. Photographs by the greatest international photographers accompany up-to-date and exhaustive texts, for a celebratory tribute to our planet and its incredible treasures.
