Résumé en anglais
Today, despite the incredible wealth of cultural heritage sites in the Middle East, with over 100,000 sites in Jordan alone, the region remains poorly represented on the World Heritage List. We, in Jordan, are working closely with our international partners to remedy this imbalance. UNESCO has described cultural and natural heritage as “irreplaceable sources of life and inspiration,” and nowhere is this more true than in the unique and magnificent sites of Jordan. This book is an attempt to illustrate the rich diversity of Jordan’s cultural heritage sites, including those that have been successfully listed as well as sites that will be recognized in the future.
