Zambia unesco sites — Zambia UNESCO sites

Zambia UNESCO has registered 1 site on the World Heritage list and 7 on the tentative list.

Some places are so interesting that it’s relevant to keep them for future generations. This is why UNESCO has built a list of crucial classified properties in which superb places stand out for their aesthetic, natural, artistic, or cultural significance.

More than a thousand places are registered as Unesco’s World Heritage worldwide. Due to my interest in visiting World Heritage sites, I compiled the UNESCO list in Zambia and the corresponding map.
