Cele mai noi obiective naturale incluse în Patrimoniul UNESCO

Lista patrimoniului mondial UNESCO este reevaluată în fiecare an de către funcționari în cadrul reuniunii anuale a comisiei. Luna aceasta au adăugat mai mult de douăzeci de locuri din întreaga lume, de la Iran și China până la Argentina.

In urma întâlnirii lor anuale de la Cracovia, Polonia, oficialii UNESCO au adăugat 21 de destinații noi pentru punerea lor definitivă pe lista siturilor din Patrimoniului Mondial.
Recunoașterea prestigioasă a fost acum extinsă la o serie de locuri din Brazilia, Polonia, Danemarca și Rusia, Franța, Cambodgia și Germania. Aceste adăugiri ridică totalul patrimoniului mondial UNESCO la un număr  de 1.073 de obiective naturale și culturale.

Deși diferă în acreditările lor, fiecare locație este unică din punct de vedere geografic sau istoric în amprenta pe care a lăsat-o pe pământ.  MailOnline Travel prezintă o selecție de imagini uimitoare care captează minunea celor mai recente obiective naturale din lista UNESCO.
