Cultural Heritage

Cultural heritage refers to the legacy of physical artifacts and intangible attributes of a group or society that are inherited from past generations. This includes items such as historical buildings, monuments, artworks, and religious sites (tangible heritage), as well as traditions, languages, folklore, customs, and practices (intangible heritage). Cultural heritage represents the cultural identity and values of a community, serving as a means of fostering social cohesion. It is preserved and passed down through generations, offering insights into the history and evolution of cultures. The preservation of cultural heritage is essential for maintaining cultural diversity in the face of globalization and change.
