National Parks That Are UNESCO World Heritage Sites

Most of us know about Yellowstone National Park or Yosemite. But there are 13 national parks that are also UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The Everglades National Park in Florida has been a UNESCO site since 1979, which UNESCO also considers endangered. Carlsbad Caverns National Park in New Mexico, which became a national park in 1930, has been recognized by UNESCO since 1995. And the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, that spans Tennessee and North Carolina, has had UNESCO status for nearly 30 years. Glacier Bay National Park, created in 1980, was actually a UNESCO site before it became a national park more than 40 years ago.

Yellowstone contains half of all the world's known geothermal features, with more than 10,000 examples. It also has the world's largest concentration of geysers (more than 300 geyers, or two thirds of all those on the planet).

Unesco World Heritage tag: Here's list of all 40 Indian sites after Dholavira addition

Unesco on Tuesday inscribed Dholavira, an ancient Harappa city situated in present-day Gujarat, on the World Heritage List, making it the second Indian site to be accorded the tag this year. Announcing the decision of the World Heritage Committee, Unesco said Dholavira’s water management system, multi-layered defensive mechanisms, extensive use of stone in construction and special burial structures set the ancient city apart from other cultural sites. On Sunday, the Unesco committee inscribed Telangana’s iconic Kakatiya Rudreshwara (Ramappa) Temple on the World Heritage List. “The ancient city of Dholavira is one of the most remarkable and well-preserved urban settlements in South Asia dating from the 3rd to mid-2nd millennium BCE (Before Common Era),” the UN cultural agency said in a statement. Union minister for culture G Kishan Reddy called the latest inscription another feather in India’s cap as the country entered the “Super-40 club” for World Heritage inscriptions. Taking to Twitter, Reddy said India has added 10 new World Heritage sites, one-fourth of India’s total sites on Unesco’s list. “Today is a proud day for India, especially for the people of #Gujarat. Since 2014, India has added 10 new World Heritage sites - one fourth of our total sites. This shows PM @narendramodi's steadfast commitment in promoting Indian culture, heritage and the Indian way of life,” the minister tweeted.
