UNESCO heritage in different countries is a collection that we at FREEDOMtravel.se have made, because it often belongs to something very unique to see or experience. We write down as soon as we can, and the idea is to get 20 or so down as a start.

UNESCO heritage in different countries
We at FREEDOMtravel.se have been to most countries in Europe and quite a few in the rest of the world and we write down what is most interesting. Unesco heritage sites are often wonderful experiences and that's why we've often been there. We have travelled around by mobile phone, but it doesn't matter if you have flown to a country because there are usually guided tours to the main sights. We will only help you if it's worth seeing and you get some information about what you want to experience.
Which countries are you interested in learning more about?
We go around the Europe and maybe there are some specific UNESCO heritage sites in some countries that we haven't written about, and that many people want answers to. Perhaps there is too little information online for us to find out. Please write and tell us!
UNESCO heritage in different countries
This page is constantly being updated and it is an avenue for those who are a little curious about sights and experiences, and where we have written to see and do on site. New stories about UNESCO heritage will be added to this page regularly, so stay tuned!
