Türkiye'nin Kültür Hazineleri

Cultural heritage serves as a bridge between the past and the future, offering invaluable insights into the lives of past societies. As such, it holds great documentary value in the lands where it resides.

With a history that stretches back as far as human civilization, Türkiye possesses a wealth of universal cultural assets. Efforts, both national and international, aimed at preserving and sustaining these treasures are of vital importance in ensuring that this rich heritage is passed on to future generations as part of humanity’s shared legacy.

Bearing the imprints of so many civilizations, Türkiye stands as one of the world’s largest open-air museums. As of 2018, 18 of Türkiye’s cultural and natural assets are on UNESCO’s World Heritage List, with 77 more included in its Tentative List. These designations are crucial for the global recognition and protection of such irreplaceable treasures.

Türkiye’s Cultural Treasures presents a rich compilation of the historical, cultural, and natural heritage sites in Türkiye that are recognized on these UNESCO lists.
