UNESCO meet in September to review the nominations to the World Heritage list from 2022 and 2023. They have added added a bunch of new sites, so this week we take a look at some of our favorite new ones. Also, we talk about sites that have been removed from the “in danger” list, as well as a couple that have unfortunately been added to it.
