Five cultural sites in Saudi Arabia and Europe have been inscribed on the world heritage list, the Unesco announced in a statement.<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to the statement issued on Saturday, the decision was made during the Unesco World Heritage Committee\u2019s 44th session recently held online and chaired from Fuzhou, China, reports Xinhua news agency.<\/p>\n

Hima Cultural Area in an arid, mountainous area of southwest Saudi Arabia won the status as it contains a substantial collection of rock art images depicting hunting, fauna, flora and lifestyles in a cultural continuity of 7,000 years, the statement said.<\/p>\n

Travellers and armies camping on the site left a wealth of rock inscriptions and petroglyphs through the ages and until the late 20th century, most of which are preserved in pristine condition.<\/p>\n

The trans-national site, \u201cThe Great Spa Towns of Europe\u201d, comprises 11 towns located in seven European countries – Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy and the UK.<\/p>\n

The spa buildings and facilities of this site \u201care all integrated into an overall urban context that includes a carefully managed recreational and therapeutic environment in a picturesque landscape\u201d and \u201cembody the significant interchange of human values and developments in medicine, science and balneology\u201d, said the committee.<\/p>\n

The other sites include the Lighthouse of Cordouan on a shallow rocky plateau in the Atlantic Ocean in France built at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries as \u201ca masterpiece of maritime signaling\u201d; the Darmstadt Artists\u2019 Colony in west-central Germany, established in 1897 as a centre for emerging reform movements in architecture, arts and crafts and now \u201ca testimony to early modern architecture, urban planning and landscape design.\u201d<\/p>\n

In Italy\u2019s historic walled city of Padua, a selection of fresco cycles painted in the 14th century by different artists for different types of patron and within buildings of diverse functions, was inscribed because they \u201cillustrate how, over the course of a century, fresco art developed along a new creative impetus and understanding of spatial representation\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
