As of 2009, there are 890 World Heritage Sites that are located in 148 countries
(map). 689 of these sites are cultural and include places like the Sydney Opera
House in Australia and the Historic Center of Vienna in Austria. 176 are natural
and feature such locations as the U.S.'s Yellowstone and Grand Canyon National
Parks. 25 of the World Heritage Sites are considered mixed i.e. natural and cultural
Peru's Machu Picchu is one of these. Italy has the highest number of World Heritage
Sites with 44. India has 36 (28 cultural, 7 natural and 1 mixed) World Heritage
Sites. The World Heritage Committee has divided the world's countries into five
geographic zones which include (1) Africa, (2) Arab States, (3) Asia Pacific
(including Australia and Oceania), (4) Europe and North America and (5) Latin
America and the Caribbean.
WORLD HERITAGE SITES IN DANGER
Like many natural and historic cultural sites around the world, many World
Heritage Sites are in danger of being destroyed or lost due to war, poaching,
natural disasters like earthquakes, uncontrolled urbanization, heavy tourist traffic
and environmental factors like air pollution and acid rain. World Heritage Sites
that are in danger are inscribed on a separate List of World Heritage Sites in
Danger which allows the World Heritage Committee to allocate resources from the
World Heritage Fund to that site. In addition, different plans are put into place to
protect and/or restore the site.
