Heritage sites serve to preserve and protect significant cultural, historical, and Natural Resources for future generations. They provide a tangible connection to the past, fostering a sense of identity and continuity within communities. Additionally, these sites often promote education and awareness about cultural diversity and history, while also contributing to tourism and local economies. Ultimately, they play a crucial role in maintaining the collective memory and cultural heritage of societies.
