Of these, only about 25 temples have survived, spread over six square kilometers.[2] Of the surviving temples, the Kandariya Mahadeva Temple is decorated with a profusion of sculptures with intricate details, symbolism and expressiveness of ancient Indian art.When these monuments were built, the boys in the place lived in hermitages, by being brahmcharis (bachelor) until they attained manhood and these sculptures helped them to learn about the worldly role of 'householder'.The Khajuraho group of temples were built together but were dedicated to two religions, Hinduism and Jainism, suggesting a tradition of acceptance and respect for diverse religious views among Hindus and Jains in the region

Charminar
description: The Charminar was built at the intersection of the historical trade route connecting the markets of Golkonda with the port city of Machhilipatnam. The city of Hyderabad was designed with the Charminar at its center, spread around in four quadrants along the four cardinal directions. Mir Momin Astarabadi of the Qutb Shahi dynasty played an important role and ordered extensive preparations for the design and layout along with that of the new capital city. Architects from Persia were invited to provide additional designs and suggestions. Inspired by the shapes of Shiya Tazias built to commemorate the tragic death of Prophet Muhammed’s grandson, Hussain at the battle of Karbala, the structure of the Charminar is perfectly square, with each side measuring 20m. The four grand arches open into four different streets and stand 11m wide. The square structure accommodates four minarets in each corner. The minarets are 56 meters high, house two balconies, and are topped with small delicate domes and intricate carvings on the outside walls. Unlike other prominent Islamic monuments, the minarets are built into the main structure. Inside the minarets there is a spiral staircase with 149 steps and 12 landings. The structure is a fine example of Indo-Islamic architecture with ample Persian influences. While arches and the domes show the influence of Islamic architecture, the minarets reflect Persian influence. The delicate stucco floral ornamentations on the ceiling, the balconies and the outside walls speak of Hindu influences.

Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor
description: Located in the Lintong District of Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang is the tomb of the first emperor in Chinese history, the largest and richest of the ancient tombs of Chinese emperors, and a great testimony to the culture of the Qin Dynasty. The discovery of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Pit in 1974 brought the important cultural heritage of Qin Shi Huang's tomb to the world. The site is supported by the mausoleum and is surrounded by more than 300 burial pits of various kinds, forming a rich and complete system of imperial tombs and providing a solid foundation for future generations to study imperial tombs. From the distribution of cultural relics, the concept of Qin Shi Huang's tombs can be divided into three spatial levels: the mausoleum area, the mausoleum garden and the tombs, and the culture of the Qin Dynasty can be understood through the study of terracotta warriors, which is a treasure of human culture.

Thracian Bulgarian Golden Treasure
subject: Movable Cultural Heritage
description: The Golden treasure named after the town of Panagyurishte in Bulgaria is a relic that is reminiscent of Thracian workmanship in the Balkans. An Amphora, a phiale and seven rhytons are among the core artefacts that make up the 24-carat gold collection. Weighing over 13 pounds the treasure is arguably one of the most valuable historic treasures found in Bulgaria. The store that precedes the treasure involves three brothers that were working in a clay pit where the 9 pieces were first discovered. The treasure was turned over to local authorities and it was kept in the Bulgarian National Bank where three identical copies were made that would travel across international museums and join exhibits. The first copy resides in the Archaeology Museum in the city of Plovdiv and it tends to travel quite a bit across Bulgaria’s largest cities. The Thracian civilization inhabited the south of the Balkan Mountains alongside the banks of the Maritza river during the 5th century BC. One of the capital cities once resided there and the treasure was buried in what is known as the Valley of the Thracian Kings during the 300 BC. It’s main usage during the time was to serve ceremonial wine and for sanctifying during rituals. The bulk of the treasures depict the ancient goddesses Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite alongside some Amazon warriors. One of them also depicts the Judgement of Paris and Hercules performing feats of strength.

Vatnajökull National Park
subject: Immovable Culture Heritage
description: Nearly 14% of Iceland's land area, or over 1,400,000 ha, is occupied by this iconic volcanic region. The property is made up of a whole system where the cryosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and lithosphere are constantly interacting with the magma and lithosphere to produce incredibly dynamic and varied geological processes and landforms. Single-celled creatures thrive in the hostile environment of subglacial lakes, which may mimic circumstances on early Earth and the icy satellites of Jupiter and Saturn, and indigenous groundwater fauna that has survived the ice age can be found in the volcanic zones of the property. By the end of the 18th century, the Vatnajökull ice cap was at its maximum size, and ever since, it has generally been retreating. Due to the recent acceleration of its retreat as a consequence of global warming, the property is an ideal location to study how glaciers and the landforms they leave behind are affected by climate change.

Bogward Doocot
subject: Immovable Culture Heritage
description: Doocots are structures intended to house pigeons and doves for later consumption. The structures have openings and provisions for roosting and breeding. Beyond a primary food source, pigeons and doves were an important source of eggs, feathers (pillows, bedding), and dung (fertilizer, softening leather, manufacturing gunpowder). Although doocots are physical structures, they are reminders of intangible aspects of Scottish history and heritage, because they were a part of everyday life. Doocots adapted beyond being a storage house into social status symbols in medieval Europe and are sources of some Scottish mythology (intangible). Into the 20th century, they were built as decorative additions to farm buildings and gardens. Climate change worsens the weather exposure threatening Scottish doocots. In some cases, doocots have been restored; however, their specific structure makes it difficult to adapt, reuse and convert to modern uses. A current attempt at digital preservation of this site is done by the St. Andrews Preservation Trust, where they offer virtual tours. There is also an extensive photo gallery online of volunteers photographing, locating and identifying doocots.

Due to the isolation from each other for about 50 years, the styles of hanbok in South Korea, North Korea, and joseonjok, worn by the Korean ethnics from these three countries have developed separately from each other. Since the 1990s, the South Korean-style and the North Korean-style have been looking more and more similar to each other. Similarly, since the Chinese economic reform of China, there have been more exchanges with both Koreas leading to both the development and changes in joseonjok-style Chosŏn-ot in China;some of designs of the joseonjok-style Chosŏn-ot have been influenced and inspired by both South-Korean and North Korean hanbok designs.

Þingvellir National Park
subject: Immovable Culture Heritage
description: Iceland's Pingvellir National Park is a location with enormous historical and cultural value. The Alpingi, the world’s oldest parliamentary assembly in existence, was founded in the park in the year 930 AD. For centuries, the Alpingi served as a location for Icelanders to assemble, discuss and make choices regarding the country's future. Pingvellir is situated in the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, a marvel of nature that divides the tectonic plates of North America and Europe. This area has many beautiful natural features including deep fissures, clear streams, and spectacular waterfalls. The heritage site is highly valuable due to its distinctive geological characteristics as well as its cultural and historical significance and can be considered as Immovable, Tangible Natural Heritage site. It has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site and it should be preserved for future generations.

Vietnamese Coffee
subject: Intangible Heritage
description: In the 1850s, French missionaries imported coffee plants into Indochina. The early coffee industry in Vietnam was disrupted by series of wars until 1975, after the Vietnam War. Now, Vietnam is the second largest coffee producer in the world. Vietnamese coffee exemplifies how a culture’s cuisine, language and economy can be affected by colonization and immigration. Beyond the intangible effects, coffee plantations (tangible, immovable) and their harvests (tangible, movable) have altered the country’s natural heritage. The risk of unexploded ordnance from the Vietnam War (armed conflict heritage) further affects farmer’s search for more land to grow coffee. After the Vietnam War, the Vietnamese Communist Party’s failed agriculture collectivization efforts prompted them to turn towards coffee production. This specific location is the Central Highlands, where Vietnamese coffee plantations grow most of their Robusta coffee beans. Vietnam is “one of the world’s most vulnerable countries to climate change” because of its low altitude, proximity to the Mekong Delta, and South China Sea coastline. Unpredictable precipitation patterns, rising sea levels and temperatures greatly affect Vietnamese coffee bean production. Digitally, Vietnamese coffee culture has been preserved primarily through social media platforms who have made the iced Vietnamese coffee drink an international phenomenon.

description: The Museum owns parts of the oldest seagoing sailing ship ever found in northern Europe. This is also the earliest example of a Romano-Celtic shipbuilding tradition that extended from the Danube in the east to France and Britain in the west. Vessels of this type were suited to the tidal coasts of northern Europe, for they had flat bottoms so that cargoes could by loaded and unloaded on a beach at low tide.

HMS K-4 and K-17 Submarine Wrecks
subject: Underwater Cultural Heritage
description: From January 31, 1917 to February 1, 1918, a disaster joint operation codenamed Operation E.C.1 and ironically dubbed Battle of May Island, led to the sinking of two submarine vessels. When their exact locations were found in 2011, the wrecks were designated as protected places under the Protection of Military Remains Act 1986. This underwater heritage site is a tangible, immovable heritage that is a reminder of how historical context affected people’s perception of submarines and how the Battle of May Island affected future submarine warfare tactics and informed submarine technology development (armed conflict heritage). Underwater heritage sites are innately susceptible to biological degradation; however, climate change can hasten their destruction by contributing to bacterial spread through changes in conservation patterns, currents and introduction of new biological species. Digital preservation has primarily been through digital charting and imaging done by EMU Limited and Headland Archaeology, commissioned by Mainstream Renewable Power to produce an archaeological technical report in context of the desired offshore wind farm.
