Added Stonehenge to my list from my trip last week. So now it's around 63.
|
161 with Easter Island (visited last week).
|
Does Dresden still count as a UNESCO WH Site? Is at least in process of being stripped of that designation
|
I'm checking this list and counting as we speak:
http://whc.unesco.org/en/list I guess it's not enough: > 49. Australia: 4-5 Austria: 2 Belgium: 2-3 China: 2-3 Czech Republic: 1 France: 6 Germany: 5 Greece: 1 Holy See: 1 Israel: 0-1 Italy: 7 Norway: 1-2 Portugal: 1 Spain: 5 Sweden: 1 Switzerland: 1 Turkey: 1 UK: 4-6 USA: 3 |
98 CJ
|
48 and counting
|
I actually went back to the list and recounted - with the help of my brother since my memory is quite poor. My total is actually 75!
|
OK - I counted a whopping 11! I had better get travelling!
US - Grand Canyon Mammoth Caves Statue of Liberty (I lived on Oahu for 3 years, but never made to volcanoes NP) Europe - We did Bavaria in December...can't believe Kathe Wolfarte's is not on the list!!! darn! Austria - Historic Centre of the City of Salzburg Palace and Gardens of Schönbrunn China - Imperial Palaces of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in Beijing and Shenyang Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor The Great Wall Summer Palace, an Imperial Garden in Beijing Temple of Heaven: an Imperial Sacrificial Altar in Beijing Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties |
At first glance - 42.
It is a surprising list in regards to what isn't on it. |
43 over 12 countries-most in UK, forgot I live nearly next door to one and have only visited 6 in the country I live in-Australia!!
|
77, much to my surprise.
Interesting list. |
The updated count for me is 80.
After next month's trip to Vienna and Budapest, I'll add 3 more. |
Total has risen to 133. 16 more this year with trips to Portugal, Russia, Belarus and Ukraine..of course not counting those I had already visited on prior trips to Russia, SSR days))...at my age ain't never gonna catch the peripatetic THIT-CHO...he's speeding toward 200!!

>>>16 more this year with trips to Portugal, Russia, Belarus and Ukraine.. co<<<
That should read...2008 when above trips were taken. |
My total is 58 sites.

Able to add several due to two trips I've taken since I posted on this several years ago and one added to the list that I had previously visited...

Oops,
Forgot Salzburg in Austria... Total: 56 Keith |
About 76 including 16 in the US. (we camped a lot when the kids were young).
Actually I think there were more, but I don't recognize some by their "formal" names. |
I am now at 54. I added 5 more in 2009.
Hope to add more in 2010! |
ps. I thought I'd point out again - both sites I originally linked are wonderful. The second one is unofficial but the owner put a LOT of work into it...
