Tentative Lists Submitted by States Parties As of 15 April 2012, in Conformity with the Operational Guidelines World Heritage 36 COM WHC-12/36.COM/8A Paris, 11 May 2012 Original: English / French UNITED NATIONS EDUCATIONAL, SCIENTIFIC AND CULTURAL ORGANIZATION CONVENTION CONCERNING THE PROTECTION OF THE WORLD CULTURAL AND NATURAL HERITAGE WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE Thirty-sixth session Saint Petersburg, Russian Federation 24 June– 6 July 2012 Item 8 of the Provisional Agenda: Establishment of the World Heritage List and of the List of World Heritage in Danger 8A. Tentative Lists submitted by States Parties as of 15 April 2012, in conformity with the Operational Guidelines SUMMARY This document presents the Tentative Lists of all States Parties submitted in conformity with the Operational Guidelines as of 15 April 2012 and subject to the procedure requested in Decision 31 COM 8A.3. The World Heritage Committee is requested to note that all nominations of properties to be examined by the 36th session of the Committee are included in the Tentative Lists of the respective States Parties. • Annex 1 presents a full list of States Parties indicating the date of the most recent Tentative List submission; • Annex 2 presents new Tentative Lists (or additions to Tentative Lists) submitted by States Parties since the last session of the World Heritage Committee; • Annex 3 presents a list of all properties submitted on Tentative Lists received from the States Parties, in alphabetical order. Draft Decision: 36 COM 8A, See Point II I. EXAMINATION OF TENTATIVE LISTS 1. The World Heritage Committee requests each State Party to submit an inventory of the cultural and natural properties situated within its territory, which it considers suitable for inscription on the World Heritage List, and which it intends to nominate during the following five to ten years. The purpose of these inventories, also known as Tentative Lists, is to enable the World Heritage Committee to evaluate, within the widest possible context, the “Outstanding Universal Value” of each property nominated to the List. At its 24th session (Cairns, 2000), the Committee confirmed the importance of these Lists for planning purposes, comparative analyses of nominations and for facilitating the undertaking of global and thematic studies. It also decided that inclusion in the Tentative List would be mandatory for all properties which the State Party intends to nominate for inscription on the World Heritage List. 2. According to paragraph 65 of the Operational Guidelines, States Parties shall submit Tentative Lists at least one year prior to the submission of any nomination. Annex 2B of the Operational Guidelines shall be used as the Tentative List submission format for all serial transnational and transboundary future nominations. The submission of such Tentative List will be valid only when all the States Parties involved have sent their submissions. 3. In considering the use of Tentative Lists as a means for achieving the objectives of the Global Strategy, the Special Expert Meeting on “The Concept of Outstanding Universal Value”, Kazan, Russian Federation, (April 2005), recommended that: • States Parties should each establish a coordination mechanism with an interdisciplinary composition to undertake and oversee effectively the implementation of the World Heritage Convention and the preparation and review of Tentative Lists in particular; • Tentative Lists should be seen as part of the effort of conservation of national heritage; • Properties on Tentative Lists should have national and/or other appropriate recognition; • Compilation of Tentative Lists should involve local communities and indigenous peoples and should include public consultation where appropriate; • The compilation of Tentative Lists should take account of the Global Strategy, comparative studies and the Advisory Bodies gap analysis; • The preparation of Tentative Lists should have due regard to other international conventions and programmes; • In preparation of their Tentative Lists, States Parties should be rigorous in their local evaluation to ensure that expectations of inscription match reality; • The size of a Tentative List should take into account the Cairns-Suzhou decision (Decision 28 COM 13.1) and the 10 years cycle of the Tentative List recommended by the Operational Guidelines (paragraph 65); • The comparative analysis should be developed by regions and themes; • Regional meetings on harmonization of Tentative Lists should identify types of properties for nomination in a given region, and those for possible inclusion as transnational and transboundary properties; • The Advisory Bodies should complete their thematic studies and initiate and facilitate appropriate regional and comparative studies as soon as possible and in a time scale to allow States Parties to identify categories and themes of heritage Tentative Lists submitted by States Parties as of 15 April 2012 WHC-12/36.COM/8A, p. 1 that are relevant for completion of all Tentative Lists in 2007 and the revision of existing Tentative Lists; • States Parties with no Tentative List should be encouraged to request preparatory International Assistance if necessary for preparing their Tentative List; • The Advisory Bodies, within their available resources, should comment on the Tentative Lists of all States Parties upon request; • The World Heritage Centre and the Advisory Bodies should provide a compilation of best practices and publish a number of training manuals; • The World Heritage Centre should prepare a handbook to inform property owners and stakeholders about the process and requirements for inscription on the List of World Heritage, and to clarify expectations concerning the benefits and commitments that may result from being inscribed as a World Heritage property. 4. Additionally, the expert meeting on “Upstream processes to nominations: creative approaches in the nomination process” held in Phuket, Thailand (April 2010) also stressed the significant role of Tentative Lists in the nomination process. While agreeing that the Tentative Lists are an important part of the process required before submission of a nomination, they also play a variety of other separate, but mutually compatible, roles. The experts concluded that processes related to Tentative Lists could be refined to provide States Parties with opportunities for further guidance and that benefits should also be derived from the harmonisation processes. The expert meeting identified a need to explore ways to offer, on a voluntary basis, assistance to States Parties by enabling the Advisory Bodies to provide advice concerning the prioritisation of properties on a State Party’s Tentative List. 5. As of 15 April 2012, of the 189 States Parties which have ratified the Convention, 171 had submitted Tentative Lists in accordance with the requirements specified in the Operational Guidelines, and 18 States Parties had not submitted any Tentative List. All nominations submitted for examination in 2012 (see Document WHC-12/36.COM/8B) are included on the Tentative Lists of the States Parties concerned. 6. In conformity with Committee Decision 27 COM 8A, paragraph 4, this document presents the Tentative Lists submissions received since the last session of the World Heritage Committee in a separate annex. Since the 35th session of the Committee, 29 States Parties have submitted new Tentative Lists or modified existing Lists. The number of new properties added to existing Tentative Lists is 103. These properties are presented in Annex 2 of this document. 7. In conformity with Committee Decision 7 EXT.COM 4A, properties already inscribed on the World Heritage List were removed from the Tentative Lists of States Parties. 8. In conformity with the Committee Decision 27 COM 8A, paragraph 5, the complete Tentative Lists of all States Parties are accessible to the public at the following web address of the World Heritage Centre: http://whc.unesco.org/en/tentativelists. 9. Moreover, the World Heritage Committee invites States Parties, which have not yet done so, to submit as early as possible Tentative Lists in accordance with the Operational Guidelines. Preparatory assistance can be provided if necessary and requested by the State Party concerned. Tentative Lists submitted by States Parties as of 15 April 2012 WHC-12/36.COM/8A, p. 2 II.

As such, the country draws much of its identity from its ancient culture, customs and traditions, the kind of which the rest of the world has lost a long time ago. Culture is Bhutan’s biggest tourist attraction. Starting this year, Norter Adventures has combined its cultural itinerary with other finer aspects of Bhutanese way of life, which are enthralling but little known to the outsiders. One such aspect is the ancient wisdom behind phallus symbols and fertility worship. This tour will introduce our guests to this age-old belief and the role it plays in modern- day Bhutan while also providing glimpses into the mainstream Bhutanese culture as in the Buddhist influences, art, craft and architecture, food and cuisine, language, customs, etc. HIGHTLIGHT OF THE GLIMPLSE OF BHUTAN TOUR Spectacular views of Mt Everest (8,848 m), Kanchenjunga (8,586m) and Lhotse (8,414 m); and a literal adrenaline-pumping landing on the roof of the world.

  • Bruges, Trier & Cologne: Three New Romantik Hotels in World Heritage Cities
    Bruges, Trier & Cologne: Three new Romantik Hotels in World Heritage Cities (Frankfurt, 1 February 2017) Romantik is expanding its presence at three historic locations: prestigious hotels in the World Heritage Cities of Bruges in Belgium, and Trier and Cologne in Germany have joined the Romantik Hotels brand, which has 200 hotels and 300 partner hotels in ten European countries. The newcomers are Hotel de Orangerie, Hotel Zur Glocke and Hotel im Wasserturm. Travellers can stay at a total of 26 Romantik Hotels located in or near 18 World Heritage Sites in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, the Netherlands and Belgium. Thomas Edelkamp, Chairman of Romantik, is delighted with the new additions: “The World Heritage Sites are some of the most visited travel destinations in Europe. At Romantik we are now offering guests top hotels at these locations that also have their own very special stories to tell. Our new members highlight a growing trend: more and more outstanding city hotels are choosing to benefit from the marketing strength of the Romantik brand.” Romantik Hotel de Orangerie, Bruges Romantik Hotel de Orangerie is located in the heart of the mediaeval city of Bruges, not far from the main museums and shops and close to the best restaurants. This is one of the most popular hotels in the kingdom. A former 15th century convent, it is situated right by the picturesque Dijver Canal. The Vermast family brings out the historic character of the mediaeval building perfectly with antique furniture and paintings, while successfully creating a contemporary hotel that meets the highest standards.
