Table of World Heritage Sites based on State Parties

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As of 2006, there are a total of 830 World Heritage Sites located in 138 State Parties. Of these, 644 are cultural, 162 are natural and 24 are mixed properties. Further site classification includes the classification of the State Parties among five geographic zones: Africa, Arab States (composed of northern Africa and the Middle East), Asia-Pacific (includes Australia and Oceania), Europe and North America (specifically, USA and Canada), and Latin America and the Caribbean. The State with most heritage sites is Italy (41 sites on a ~300,000 km² area), the second is Spain (38 sites on a ~500,000 km² area), the third is China (33 sites on a ~10,000,000 km² area).
