having natural and the cultural heritage which is spreader all over the world and this has also
developed an value to humanity. This is also considered as an unique landmark and this is
identified on the basis of historically and geographically. As this has originated in 1954 by
government of Egypt as this has decided for building an Aswan high dam and this can be a future
reservoir and this also contains the cultural treasures(Smith 2020). Later they has rescued and
endangered all the monuments for saving the country historical contribution. As this idea was
generated for the creation of international movement and this can also help in protecting the
heritage after world war 1. This was basically formed with the concern of natural heritage and
world cultural and this can also become two movements and this can preserve all the cultural
sites and nature. As with the above describe even it has been started by government and this got
donation from 50 countries and this ha also developed safeguarding campaigns. After so many
years this has ratified as this has become an international community for appreciation with an
positive influence and impact of natural wealth and cultural diversity. This also has benefit the
developing countries and this has developed an public awareness and builds better value and this
has also lead in increasing the activities related to tourism and make it sustainable for increasing
the economy(Hosseini Stefaniec and Hosseini 2021). As this is divided in three types as this
involve cultural mixed and natural, In cultural heritage sites involves the historic buildings and
this also involves the town sites and this has captured from hundred of years. This also involves
the archaeological sites and this also works in the painting and the sculpture of the monuments.
In natural heritage it involves all the restricted natural areas and this furnishes all the life records
and the process of earth, This also priced an better example to the biological and the ecological
process of evolutionary. This also include the rare and unique beauty and this also involves the
endangered plants and animals. In mixed heritage sites it involves elements of cultural and the
natural significance.
Each country ahs some preserved unit and this there are many reasons of securing the same as
old place, civil identity, architecture, economics, memory, history and beauty. As this also allows
better understating of history to the modern world and this also make them an specific memory

of an event which can develop the better idea to the old place and builds the understanding of
history effectively. Sometimes monuments are also painted and scripter with the certain quality
of light and inspiring motivational quotes and thoughts(Spezzano 2021). As these historical sites
are manipulated with the specific view point and this can also express the views and thoughts by
that monument of memory. As mostly people are not more acknowledged with these historic
places as they are not retains, recognized and valued frequently. There are various places which
are erased for making some building but some of the special monuments are landscaped in the
memories of society. As if an historical site survives and this becomes an national identity,
vortex and the understanding venue and this can also be targeted by the enemy measures as this
in wars mainly old places are destructed as they are linked with the story and is older, As each
old place is linked with the history and it is important to make it alive by the society for
remembering the memory. This is important to preserve as thus develops the better
understanding of history as this also helps in saving the energy resources and this can reduce the
environment carbon footprint and this also leads in increasing he worth of the buildings(Cign
Tapete and Lee 2018) As this also develops the educational and cultural values as this monument
are enrich with the values. This also becomes the sense of country’s pride and also develops
better historical bonding in citizens and make them towards there goals and wants to keep these
monuments forever alive and make there past preserve. Egypt and Italy is being amount for old
monuments and this also has built better economic improvement and development and this also

an social advantage as people are connected to the history and curious to known the past history
which was in last 100 years and due to this it also become tourist place for the visitors and
therefore later government has decided to develop It an heritage sites(Nicu 2019). These has also
developed an better change in the society and about these heritage monuments are also studied

As this has impacted the tourism industry as there is the huge role of heritage sites in country and
in the industry as there are various variable sites in world and this is impacting in mass tourism
and this also leads in global warming and make the better resource extraction and gives better
development to the business foe the better profit to tourism industry. As this is also impacting in
the climate as rising temperature has protected the heritage and this can also impact in generation

of future. As for visiting this heritage sites society uses transportation and this contributes in the
greenhouse gas emission as burns the fuel of transportation involve boat, aircraft and buses(Sun
and Chen 2021) AS this also has lack of resources which is impacting the risk of heritage and
these are the factors which can impact in the gas development, effective management,
urbanisation and the hydropower development. Tourism is an potential and direct contribution to
the sustainable development and this can help the business in the better economic growth and the
suitable consumption use of resources and cost of the business. Tourism industry also impact in
the global scandalisations and this also indicates with the global comparison and benchmarking.

lead a better change in management(Migoń, 2018).
