It is THE most prestigious distinction in the world for a tourist site. It is based on three pillars: excellence, protection and influence.
Welcoming a visitor to a UNESCO site means passing on a piece of humanity's history.
Our challenge is to make this heritage accessible while remaining sustainable.
